  • I didn't send you a Private Message

    I'm hearing reports of some members who say they have received a PM from me in the last 24 hours. It was not sent by me (and nothing showing in my SENT box either).

    Perhaps my PM facility has been compromised, hacked or hijacked in some way so I have disabled it.

    I'm told that members can't delete the PM they received (purporting to be from me) which contains a link - I suggest you don't attempt to click on it.

    I'm grateful to those who've made me aware and would ask anyone else who receives one of the rogue PMs to post on this thread.

    I will report this issue to Never-in-Doubt.

    How bizarre!

    If someone has one of these PM's can you please screen print it and forward to me - webmaster@all-about-debt.co.uk

    Thanks

      Interesting, I have got 2 notifications, and when I click to see them there are no pm's or notifications, but, there are 2 flagged reports, one is from Di and the other for me. It sems that we have both reported the same post about apps, so could it be these that are being mistaken for a pm?
      Not sure why I have a notification since I am not a moderator and obviously cannot delete posts, but could it be something to do with it?

          No, nothing. The notifications have gone For me it was showing next to the flagged reports on the left side of that page underneath the Subscriptions part of the menu, there was nothing in the actual pm's

                  I received them too. I took the PRAgmatic approach and assumed it was a PRAnk (did you like that )
