Hey guys, just got a PM from a member "Sorokina19" that is clearly spam offering nudes by clicking on a link. I did not click on a link (and advise nobody does in such messages).
Wondering if it's an isolated incident or if this sort of thing hit multiple members and may be a wave of new spam tactics on the forums. I can post or forward the concents of the PM if any admins are interested. |

I got the same PM.
I asked for verification that she was real in the form of a reddit-style verification photo...

I’ve gotten a few messages about this today. Unfortunately there’s nothing I can do about it. I can ban members from posting only after they post, but I cannot delete members or prevent them from sending PM’s.

I see. Let's hope it goes away and doesn't become the next spam-a-thon.
Sooooo... anybody clicked on the link? Are the nudes any good? JK |

Probably because you're a moderator, cause you know you might ban them and stuff for spamming.

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

I'm selling a beater chevy cobalt on offerup right now for cheap. as a tag at the end of the posting i wrote "to all you disrespectful lowballers who waste my time: please know that i absolutely have no problem with saying 'yes' and then running you around for awhile. if you disrespect me with your lame offers, i will disrespect you back in my own way. that stuff is fun to me." I guess I am just telling this story to give everyone ideas about how to stamp out life's spam in all its myriad forms.
