!!!possible threat in forum!!!
 
I RECEIVED A MESSAGE FROM MannInBlackk TODAY AND IT SAID THAT THE LAST COUPLE DAYS MY COMPUTER HAS SHOWN VIRUS ACTIVITY. I HAVENT BEEN ON THE FORUM IN A COUPLE WEEKS SO THERE IS NO WAY THAT HE WOULD KNOW THAT. PLUS, MY COMPUTER IS FINE. HE SENDS YOU A LINK TO "FIX" YOUR COMPUTER. I AM VERY CONFIDENT IT IS A VIRUS SO DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK. PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

I just joined this forum and got the same thing this morning. He has no posts and when you try to reply to his message it says his box is full.

suzienrick18 01-27-2010 09:20 AM

Same here
 
I got the same thing

Sounds like a scam
 
This message from maninblack sounds like a scam. I suggest you delete the message asap.

Alastair Ian MacArthur 01-27-2010 05:31 PM

I got the same thing

bikefreax 02-07-2010 04:33 PM

got another one today from RazzorrMan. This is getting old and I wish I could just delete my account. I am thinking of buying a mini and just wanted info. Never been harrassed like this on any of my subaru or photography forums. I have disabled all e-mail notification stuff so I wont even see any responses to this. Wish I could just delete it.

dadsalfa 02-07-2010 07:07 PM

I got one from Xandderrmann,text looked like one of those weak translations from Chinese.So how is it coming at us through this forum with our user names?

bad venge 02-07-2010 08:07 PM

All these mann ones are the SAME spammer he just comes back with a new IP
If they bother you go to the CP and chose not to recieve PM's

bikefreax 02-07-2010 09:21 PM

Based on what I am reading he is only hitting new people on this forum. Everyone that has complained has less than 50 posts and usually a lot less than that.

flamingvictory 02-08-2010 08:33 AM

Now he calls himself RazzorrMan. Spam.

bad venge 02-08-2010 04:55 PM

Hmmm I have 917 posts and he hit me ... pretty dumb spamming a moderator

flamingvictory 02-09-2010 07:53 AM

I wonder if he thinks anyone would ever go for it. Amazing how some people get their kicks, isn't it?

nlwantmc 02-11-2010 05:44 PM

I got the same message too. it's nice to know that i'm not alone. I didn't click on the site added in the msg, but it bothered me because I did my own scans and found no viruses.

csturnbull 02-11-2010 06:07 PM

Well if he's banned why did I get one today?

admins i would recommend blocking registration for a few days until whoever is sending these spam messages stops. can you trace the IP they're being registered from?

bad venge 02-12-2010 06:25 PM

No they have different IP's and emails evey time
