Viagra ad sent by someone who has my username and said I wished to be contacted about that product.
Ironic if a security oriented site has been hacked, or is open or can be bought to being used for inappropriate trolling for business. ? Omission or commission.
Moderator - anything I should know about this website?
Others - caution may be in order.

I got the same message, I think. It said somebody from the forum had sent me a private message. (about Viagra? I'm female...) So, do I mark "forum@firetrust.com" as Spam?

Ah right, I've set it now so users can only send one private message to one user, not to as many users as they want. Hopefully that should eliminate this from happening.echo14612 wrote:I got the same message, I think. It said somebody from the forum had sent me a private message. (about Viagra? I'm female...)

As far as I'm aware, the problem of spam sent via PMs stopped when I removed the ability for users to send PMs to multiple users at once. At present we're only seeing a few <removed> spammers, but even they've died down a lot lately
