Are you getting weird messages? I got one from a user named "2J2N9kSSBpsL4Xvq". Some link I didn't click on. What's that supposed to be?
Even with the captcha?
Maybe warn the blues about this O_o

Btw I kept my PMs blocked for unknown people to avoid mesages like these.

Yup. After 10 years as an off/on customer here, I'm seeing spambots for the first time (here, anyway)

I think the team is doing due diligence and pruning them as fast as possible, but it's a sad reality that you WILL get crap in the inbox, just NEVER open or click unless you trust the sender.
I found that spammer too and a second (?) one without text.
The second name appeared after I blocked the first one.

I got one today.
high rated
I can't do anything active about spam to the PMs. I can only suggest blocking the user(s) when you receive, and closing your chat if you receive a lot of it.

I'll pass word to Staffers, and see if they can do anything.
Just got one myself. Cleared the message without clicking the link. It's probably a scam or malware embedded within pictures of anime boobies.
I also got one, blocked the user.
Same here.
I've heard back from Staff.

Unfortunately, all we can do about the bots is ask that you report the names of the bots so Staff can check on them and lock the accounts.
bots?
bots.
Boot the bots out!

Happened to me as well.
Only Optimus Prime and his gang can fix this, and maybe us not clicking on the links ;). Cheers

EDIT: Jokes aside, didn’t get any message of that sort, but will report if i do.

If the bots are automatic, they could perhaps be auto-bots? Isn't it the decepticons' role to fight those?
