starslab Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 I'm received a captcha-cracking spam PM from "jurdreda". You are more than welcome to check my PM mailbox. I apologize for this overly visible means of announcing this fact, but I can't find another way to contact an adminsitrator. Please remove this post from the forum once the issue is resolved.

thollian Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 same here, the link goes to some adult website...
Altercuno Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Me too -what a twat. LUK is the only admin round here Just delete it...
ukulele Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 I think we all got it... The link redirects to some pharmacy site - typical spam. Judging from the end of the redirected link (index.php?pid=eph2899&partnerid=1312) the spammer also gets some credit for every click. I'm ashamed that I clicked it when it obviously wasn't send by the real admin, LIGHTNING UK!
bazer Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 seems like the ru spammers are at it ive had to delete an old email account becuse of these retards
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 It has been dealt with now. All the PM's have been pruned from the database, the bot's accounts (5 in total) have been banned and I've black listed the IP. A patch has been implemented which applies flood control to the PM system. I apologise for any inconvenience caused.
