I see you guys were on top of this spam in my PM box. I did not even have to report it and the poster is banned.

Yeah, i got this too. Sigh... does that kind of marketing even work anymore?

Thanks

Got that too. I wonder how they caught him.

I got it too... if I remember correctly he had exactly 5 posts, which is all you need to PM. They should raise it to 15 posts and like 7 days of membership.

It was reported by PM and acted upon
