<![CDATA[OT: Spam Private Messages]]>Sorry if this isn't the right place to report this, but is anyone else having an issue recently with spam private messages here? I've had two this week, including some pornographic photos.

I'm not here very often, but I've shut off notification of private messages for the time being.

That site just appears to be a gay man's football chat ... It is actually a front for ISIS recruiting.

LOL, probably why it's dangerous. 🙂 Our head Administrator has way better web security here. But seriously, there's several guys over there I'd welcome with open arms here. Our old pal Shep is a regular. I won't be seeing what's going on over there for a LONG time.

I'll post this as a public service announcement- that "other" Browns forum "The 'Tard" has also been hacked- LOL, probably by the Russians. There have been spoofed popups saying your Adobe Flash is out of date. Just click here- um no, you've been phished. Yesterday my Norton gave me (for the first time ever) the red DANGER! screen- unsafe website.
