I've been going through this morning and banning all of the accounts one by one. Doing some more research to find out if they are all linked to the same ip address. I'll ban that ip if possible.

I as well recieved a inappropriate message in my PM box from Angela25 (2/8/20 4:08am), please look into blocking and removing IP address from whomever is sending them. The message is and was sent in my PM box named Angela25, I have not contacted anyone in the 30 days on this forum, and someone is spamming or phishing and compromsing the integrity of this forum, let me know what happens, thank you for your attention to this matter

Yep, I got one from Elizabeth193 asking me to sign up on her (sexy) website. That username is new and has has 0 posts. This is what I expect whenever there is talk about removing the 10-post minimum and relaxing the site for newbies.

Please add Heather308 to your list of users to remove. Had the same message as others reported above from that user.

Thanks to the Mods for working on fixing this.

Wonder how many of these users with random female name with some numbers tacked on are continuing to generate this spam.

It must be my lucky day! I got a private message from Jennifer65. Evidentially she is "looking for a good guy for romantic sex." and wants to show me her sexy photos!

Members,

Today was round 2 of a wave of PM spammers. If you received a PM from one of these suspected spammers then please check the user's public profile (there is no harm in it). If there is a "Banned" status then you do need to report it. If you do not see a "Banned" status then please, report it. Afterwards, you may delete the message.

There were approximately 100 spammers attempting to flood our PM system today. Several messages were unfortunately submitted during the process of banning these suspect accounts.

Again, the mod team thanks all of you who reported the problem and we are sorry that you had to receive such trash in your PM inbox.

Great work mods; I also received one of these messages and the user was already banned before I could report it.
