SPAM messages...

[Peter Poelman]

We removed a large number of Private Message spam messages yesterday. So if you got an e-mail announcing a PM and no PM was there when you logged in, this is ok.

Damn spammers...


EDIT MDAIIIUser
Removed the Global Announcement as the Info is now old 10/05/2006

It has been a problem on a lot of forums recently, as it seems there is now code that can integrate with the board and autosend to a selection from the members list.

With XMB the latest version has code to prevent this - so i would guess there is also a version for phpBB.

If it is from a unique IP there is no harm in blocking it as a quick temporary fix.

If you read his post subject, it says, "Got this one the other day in my PM box..." This implies that he is willing to notify us of this spam PM occurence.

Ah ha, please accept my sincere apologies! I was all in a bind about spam and clearly not thinking properly. Again, i retract my comments 100% and have edited out my previous post.

Regards,

Neil.
