I received a PM from a member named: mignulikz

He sent me a link that said "important" I wasn't sure what to think, so I clicked, stupidly, and got linked to a website containing a LOT of adult content. I'd recommend removing this member from the board before he causes any more trouble. I wouldn't open any PMs from him, either.

in the world of Internet, always be careful where and what you step on.

I want to share an habit of always look at the status bar before clicking an unknown link especially it's email, PM or a pop up window.

If your status bar is not below your browner, you can enable it by going

View > Status Bar and enable it. (Applies for IE and Firefox user)

Yes, it is from the same bot.

We'll look into how to prevent it from happening again.

Special thanks to members who reported this matter.

We deeply regret any disgust felt by members in receiving such spam. We also sincerely apologise to our female members who are emotionally affected by the pornographic content of such pm.

It is a different bot this time and we are still monitoring the situation. Please report immediately to any of the moderators if you receive such pm again.
