@Cindybeam 

There is a new round of private message spam attacks. Beware of @iSpammers.

If you do receive something that sounds to good to be true, here’s what to do:

 

1. DO NOT click on any links within the message

2. Report the message

 

 

 

3. Delete the message

 

Note that you do not need to submit a ticket. The Moderator team will be taking immediate action and banning users sending the spam messages upon reporting.

 

Please help us by staying vigilant and reporting any suspicious activity on the Community.

If you see links in your mail...they are scams.

There are contests on the community, but if they arrive in your messages, be careful, very careful. Spam is everywhere.

 

I believe the contests always come in the announcements thread.
