i've never seen as many spambots and viagrasellers like this on any other board I ever visited.

Maybe there's some lack of security in the forum software? Oo

I got it as well.  It's so obviously spam though

I suppose a spammer could actually join up with the board legitimately, therefore gaining access to lots and lots of people to message.  Would probably work better on bigger forums

I actually managed to dodge this bullet.  Perhaps it targeted people posting in a particular thread, as most (if not all) of you are active members.

Guess I won't need to report this as spam since multiple people got it.  I hope that account gets banned?  Perhaps even report the IP to the ISP that registered for the account?

I figured it was spam.  I got the message as well and ignored it.  However it did draw me to the forum to see what was up.
