Spam!

Post by Zaphod »

Many of you have received email spam originating from the forum. This is due to a user signing up on the forum and emailing folks through the email form. As soon as this activity was detected, the offending user was unceremoniously deleted, so hopefully this isn't an ongoing thing.

If you guys are still getting these emails (basically the old Nigerian prince scam), please let us know. You can email webmaster@powerchurch.com, and that'll come straight to me. I'll look into it right away. Attach the email you get in its entirety, because that's helpful in rooting out the problem.

The good news is, the spammer/scammer doesn't have your actual email address. All emails on the forum have to be sent through the email form, so your address stays safe - that's never exposed to the public.

I'm sorry this has happened, and hopefully none of you have wired money to the Ivory Coast.
