l'm sure alot of you have notice these pathetic scams being posted here in the last few days.

l just thought it might be worth starting a thread to post links to them so its easier for the Mods to find them and ban these scumbags.

So l'll kick it off with one that l have just come across a few minutes ago......

The simpliest and easiest way for Moderators to learn about these spams and scams (and any other problem involving the forum) is to use the "Report to moderator" button below each message.

After clicking it, it sends an email and a PM to a mod(s) informing them there is a problem which can be acted upon swiftly.

yeah this is the way to go report to mods and it gets removed pretty quickly most of the time.

Leave it up for the time being as it does inform others to use this function. Unless HP sees it as clutter. :P

Nah, I'll leave this thread up, idea was good! But reporting is the easiest option :). Was having dinner and wasn't on FF for past like 3 hours so spammers came but deleted once I got on. Thanks all for reporting!
