Apologies for the spam

Hi @Jason, I don't have a reply or delete button. Just the scam message

@zool3,

Once you open the message, by clicking on the message subject line, you'll be presented with options in the bottom right-hand corner. It sounds like you've gone into your private messages but haven't opened the actual message to see the options.

Here's a spammer not already mentioned.

Glad this thread was started because it wasn't clear how to report spam to the moderators.

Hey @TempestSkye7 ,

Yep that was the spammer/scammer. All part of the same bunch.

Apologies that you got one of the PMs

The team has dealt with it, and no-one should be getting spam Private Messages in future.

Hi all,

Many thanks to all our wonderful community members who reached out during the week and reported receiving a spam message. 

Just wanted to update you all that we've made a number of significant changes to ensure that this incident does not happen again. We're also working on more.

You'll notice that the Private Messenging capability on the site has a new look and feel, and we've made changes behind the scenes to ensure only trusted users can send messages to you. You might also like to turn off the private messenging capability if you wish, or change your email notification settings. You can do so in the My Settings section.  

Please don't hesitate to reach out anytime if you have any questions or concerns.

Jason
