I got it, too. I'm sure she wil be banned as soon as Karen logs on. To all of you... don't click on the link she sent!

That user has been banned, as of a couple hours ago, but apparently not before they managed to send that to many, many people. Sorry! They are now banned fur-ever!

It is happening on other forums, too - just got one notice from a forum I have not logged into in years.Must be a new spammer tactic.

Yeah, sadly, I cannot see into people's PM mailboxes to delete it before people see it! I can delete a person's posts, but not their sent PMs.

Guess that I am also an "A-lister" (she said dubiously) as I just logged on after reading posts and sure enough I was included in this disgusting spamming effort. Thank you RedHedd for heads-up so I could clean up my "box" without inadvertently opening any links, and thank-you Karen for speedy action.

Just found it now--- my turn to be disgusted. I was happy to see I had a message---but it sure was not this one. I didn't bother with the link, just deleted it.

Some people stop at nothing...I saw she/he had been banned-- Said Supermom so assumed it was a SHE...

It's funny, as the link was in a format of webpage I recognized as being something certain promoters in the book industry recommend, this person follow THAt to the letter, but hiring spammers to flood message boards is no way to get publicity of the good kind!

It had a link...cyber poison as far as I'm concerned. I posted about it in the Town Hall too.
