Anyone else get a PM with mysterious link?

Anyone else get a PM from a user with zero posts with a hidden link?

Mind reading my story and telling me what you think ?
Here it is : http://******???????

I didn't post the whole link above. Maybe it’s legitimate, but the circumstances seem suspicious. I’m reluctant to click on an anonymous link from an anonymou user like this. Could be spam... or worse.

I did. Messaged back I didn't know them and why me? Figured it was up to no good..

It was Langley.

It is spam. I copied mine to Laurel. She said that she was not only blocking the sender for sending spam, but also for using bad grammar.

Thanks for the info. Good to know.

Yeah, trust that instinct. If it's not spam, it'll be malware.

They sent it my way, too.

Most of the spam is pretty obvious with a broad target audience in any forum, and it says something like
Check out hot babes who like to suck!
This one was seemingly targeted Lit reviewers. I guess that the targeted phishing & spearfishing is their new game.

Langley.....

Or maybe it was Fort Meade who sent the email.

Maybe some help from GCHQ ?
OR
Section 31, the T'al Shiar, the Obsidian Order ?

If it's the same one I received the other day asking me to check out their story while posting a bitly link, yes, I did and I deleted it.

No posts and you want me to click a link to an outside source? Pffft!

Neither the CIA nor the NSA e-mails I have. Yes, I received that one too.

To be honest I haven't received that PM. Which just means that I'm not important enough to be spammed. FUCK U SPAMMER!

I don't get them either, so don't despair.
