Default Any one get Private Message Spam?

Hey Everyone,

I suspect I caught a PM spammer in the act today. This person managed to send out quite a few of them before I noticed it, so sorry if you got one. If you did get a spam message in your PM, let me know what it says...I didn't get one but instead tracked some very odd behavior that led me to ban a new member (I was watching the "sent" number of PM's balloon up today).

Why someone will spend, literally hours, spamming via PM's is beyond me. You can only send 5 PM's at a time, and there is a delay in-between how many you can send consecutively. This person was "sending private messages" for nearly two hours today...and still managed to only send out like 50 or so PM's.

Anyways, post whatever this person sent. I'd be interested to see what it says, if only for posterity sake.

Jim

Hi,
I'm new here, how's it going?

"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein

Well, at least it wasn't a pitch for Viagra or other life enhancing products.
