Post by: steve dave on February 19, 2010, 03:09:57 PM
If anyone gets a PM like this from some random person.....do not click the link (obviously).  Thanks for everyone that reported it.  Please let us know of any more in the future as well.

That's what I always wonder. This probably belongs in the "angry things" thread, but I hate all the dumbfucks out there who are opening spam, junk mail and answering telemarketers.

SD, do you have a way to disable the link in the OP?  You don't want anyone to accidentally click on it and allow them to sue you for posting malicious links. :)
