Have there been any PM viruses or anything. Someone I don't know PMed me and I'm a bit nervous about going in to see why or delete it. Something seems suspicious.

I have never heard of any viruses... only SPAM. If it is, simply copy the profile of the sender and forward it to Laurel.

Getting messages from people you don't know is nothing abnormal. There are some who simply lurk and never post. Some people don't like lurkers. Some people, like me, don't care because I have made more friends that way than through the boards.

You will never know until you open it.

We've had a rash of PM spam lately. Laurel deletes it if someone reports it. Sometimes the counter shows you have a PM but there aren't any listed. With the mass removal of the spam and the spammer, the counter hangs for a while.
 
Thanx.

It was just a cammer spamming for viewers. I just deleted and let it go; it was a Lit cammer.

Sometimes the spammers take the effort to set up a Lit picture thread as a trailer for their offsite activities. It's still spam.
