whitepinesquilter Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Be wary of messages from someone you aren't familiar with coming through your messages here. Watch for Micheal02, a new user who is using the message system to spam users. There isn't a way that I could see to report the user right through the message center so I've started it as a topic here just to let the admin know. (Maybe this has been going on already? I've just not received any: .......................................................................................................................... Hi! I am Vivian!how are you! hope you are fine and in perfect condition of health. I wentthrough your profile and i read it and took intersest in it,if you don'tmind i will like you to write me on this ID (michealvivian481@yahoo.fr)hope to hear from you soon, I will be waiting for your mail because i havesomething VERY important to tell you.Lots of love from madamVivian! ............................................................................................................................ jeez.

JustSewSimple Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I actually got malware from here. Every time I'd log on I'd get pop-up ads 3" square on the bottom right of my screen. It only happened on this site. I had to "clean" my computer even tho I have Norton. Can't get away from the stuff. I too have been getting email from folks (quilters) I don't know.

Mrs.A Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I received the same message from "Vivian" this morning. Didn't recognize the name and could tell by the language that it was not authentic. I reported it to the forum folks earlier this AM. What a pain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
