Athena Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 High folks, this is from someone using this forum to con people out of money. Just what you to be on guard.

hypervalent_iodine Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Athena, We were made aware of this particular poster a few days back and have banned her/it and the other alias as a spammer. I am unsure exactly how far the comments spread and definitely was not aware PM's were involved, but you are obviously right to exercise caution and to warn others. Anyone else who did get that message or a profile comment should simply delete it. We do our best to try and circumvent spammers from being able to spam here (Cap'n has the software set to avoid most of them), but unfortunately some manage to slip through the cracks. Thanks again. Edit: I'm going to remove the spam email addresses that I just noticed in the email you copied. Just a heads up.
