Maybe a security hole in phpBB?
I participate in a lot of other forums, including phpBB ones, but none of them send me spam PMs... |

These people are manually sending PM's (or maybe use some automated scripts). Does not seem like a security hole (this time). |

I had two yesterday along these lines.
I would just ignore them and delete them. Dont in any case click on the links as its just virus spam that will only do harm. _________________ www.davehart.me |

Another one to look out for is a message telling you that you are sending out spam, and that you should change your password.
Message title: "Spam from Your account"
Don't follow the instructions as it takes you to a 3rd party site! |
