Thank you; I get confused with technology! I won't be so paranoid about unknown e-mails, but will be judicious about NOT clicking links. Thanks much!

How do we report this to Administration? My cousin said I should not send back, but to delete.

Was it an email that told you that you had a private message on here? I got a private message on here and got the email that said what the private message was on here so I signed in and opened and reported it.

This is what showed up in my private message. Weird.

I received an odd PM with the the same lettering and characters on the first line above. Started with C ending with a and characters directly above and after the a. Sent this morning I think at 7:35 by keithuntinh9xx68 I do not know who this is. He is on the list of members but has never posted. I do not know how to report this to Admin. Would someone please do this for me? Should I just delete the Message? Thank you!

I do not see keithuntinh9xx68 as being a member.

Jkpal · 12-17-2020, 03:23 AM

Yes, it was for a Private Message. You can see in previous post what his/her "sign-in" was---gibberish. And I gotta admit, sorta scary cuz what is THIS all about????

How do we report this? Because I DO NO WANT TO RECEIVE ANYTHING from this sender!!

Lisa and Pic · 12-17-2020, 06:36 AM

I received the same today but it was on my page, not a private message.

swgayorkie · 12-17-2020, 12:05 PM

Today I received the same thing, only it was the full opened message as an unapproved visitor message. I have reported it to admin.
This is reall spooking me!

It took a long time to find it in the member list but I finally found it when I received it. I do not plan to look again. Too long of a list

When you open the private message there is an icon for reporting it on the top right of the message.

Lovetodream88 · 12-17-2020, 01:37 PM

It's nothing scary it was just spam and has happened before.

See under your name which is under your pic. The yellow triangle with red. If you click on that it says report post
Make that red outline inside white with black line
