Just received a PM from Bilora and seems to be another typical case of spam.

The message read:
Dear Friend
With all due respect, I am BILORA MICHAEL, aged 23 years, a Citizen of Republic Sierra-Leone. I am presently residing in Cotonou,Benin where I am contacting you from. I got your contact in my search for an honest person abroad who can assist me in investing my inheritance wisely and my instinct motivated me to write you. I hope you will be kind enough to digest my mail and help me in this regards.

I inherited the sum of US$8Million (EIGHT MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) from my late parents as the only child of my parents. My parents were victims of the deadly plane crash that took the lives of over 110 passengers in Cotonou, Republic of Benin on December 25, 2003. My parents were on their way to Beirut (Lebanon) on holiday when they met their sudden death. You can check and verify about the plane crash in the following links below.

In any case, Mods please do the needful. :P

TIA

Gannu must be a very honest person to get that offer.

No offer for any money. :no:

I replied back with "I am fine but who is that?" :rofl:

LOL I remember b4 in hotmail there was a surge of nigeria spam where the sender claimed someone had died leaving him a lot of money and he needed my bank account and some other details. LOL
 
There will be restriction on sending out PM for the members with less than 35 posts. They can send only 5 PM per day.

This should reduce the damage done by mass PM sent out by the bots.

We'll try to ensure that the spam is kept to the minimum, please report to us immediately in case of any spam.
