Hello everyone,

Thank you to those who've alerted us to the PM spamming from earlier today. While we have security measures in place, we can't prevent all spam. We are currently working on measures to try and block this kind of private message spamming. If you received a message from rita44556 prompting you for money, please do not respond, or share any of your information. 

This user has been blocked.

Going forward, please continue to report any email spammers or questionable behaviors to us. We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for alerting us!

    I Second That

    Would like to second Vicki's thanks and would also like to say that I sincerely hope that the Proper Authorities are notified.  When something like this happens there could be vulnerable people hurt by it.  These people who do this are the lowest of the low and need to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law....what they are doing is reprehensible.
