I got what appears to be a spam e-mail in my Private Messages, selling me a product I don’t care to give advertisement to. I will supply the details (if the mods would like) via post report.
No malware, nothing too bad - just spam.

Please send me the name and the contents of the PM so I can kill it with fire.

Fire’s not good enough. Use a tactical nuke. Or two.
Yeah, if you want me to do something crazy, like ban the entire internet.
You have to nuke it from orbit, Marley.
It’s the only way to be sure.

Now I am spamming you, as requested.
Thanks for your quick attention.

If this is something about a type of cleaning product, I got that, too. The user was already banned by the time I checked it.
Yup, someone else got there before I had a chance. But either way, the spammer has been scrubbed.
You mean you were using us as guinea pigs ? :eek:

Well, of course.
One can get emotionally attached to guinea pigs.

I feel left out. No spam in my PM box. Why do they ignore me so?
Now, now, don’t anyone try to cheer me up by sending me some fresh spam…
I got spam as well; forwarding it to Marley23 .
IF YOU CHANGE YOUR CUSTOM TITLE’S STATUS TO “SEND MARLEY23 SPAM” AND FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO FIVE FRIENDS HE WILL SEND YOU A KINDLE FIRE.
PASS IT ON!

I was getting tired of my one person war on popcorn anyway…
Sadly, none of five people I forwarded the message know anything about SDMB. But it still counts, right?
I’ll expect my Kindle soon.

What do we have to do to avoid being stuck with a Kindle?

Yeah, I got it, too, and searched up the sender’s single post, which was also the same spam. Which gave me a convenient thing to report.
Send a can of Spam to the next ten people on the list.
