Sir,
I received a message from Forum Administration stating I had a private message from "profilicus". However, when I looked on the file nothing there!
Any ideas?
Yours,
G/.

He may have deleted it before you had the chance to read it.

HI, I've also received a message from this member and I had no new message in my private box. Then I looked after this member into the listing of member, and he does'nt exsit.
the message received is:

"Hello spitfire220,

It sounds as if that might have been someone who joined to spam, but was deleted before he could accomplish any real harm.

Yes indeed. We have to delete 50-60 of these every day now. Sadly "profilicus" got through the net on a PARTICULARLY active day. He has been deleted.

Anyone who ever gets a PM from "Forum Adminstration", please check with the Site Admins - Tom, Jason, or myself.
