I got it too - but I understood that you can only send PMs individually, OK, then you can copy and paste to the next member, but that would take forever. Has this person managed to work out how to blitz us all at once?

The PM does not have a virus. It is probably created by a bot that scours the web. The computer that sent this out is probably collecting email lists to sell, so don't send you email address in response. Send your monster sister in law's email instead. LOL.

apparrently she was very busy this morning! she has been blocked but beware of others
a note to all we have to have the BOARD USERNAME to locate these people to be blocked, she signed it with a different name from what she joined as so remember to send that info along when reporting things.
thanks
and Patrice is not being unattentive to the board, she's had classes all week for work

Any time you see anything that looks like this or other spam, make sure that you let the moderators know so we can lock them out or delete the thread!

Thank you for telling us about this spam. I didn't get it but am thankful to you for alerting us incase someone tries this more often.

I immediately pulled her profile and noted she had just joined....immediately distrusted even more than my initial distrust!!!
