User "bigmeal" likely hacked - spam PM's

[Pippen]

Hasn't posted in a couple years but PM'ing the same spam messages I know a number of us received a few weeks back.

Just wanted to give people a heads up.

I looked at it last time and this on an old iPod touch I have. It's my Spam Tester now...haha.

The link DOES go to a fishing gear looking wholesale site but everywhere one clicks there are all sorts of redirects etc. Click on a fishing reel....and you can see the URL's doing all sorts of changes.

Thanks for the heads up.

Ya....I just remembered his profile/avatar pic of the hooked Hali.

Just looked at some posts....he was from the 'West Shore' has a 17' Arima Sea Ranger, and was a home builder in some way , shape or form.

May be worth messaging in case he had email notifications set up for his PM's?

Thanks for the heads up guys. I have temporarily suspended the account and notified him via email about the situation.

You could have changed his password and notified via email too Bri.
But at the end of the day. He hasn't been here for a while

Didnt see this thread before I posted my suspicions... I will delete it

 

[Barnacle Bill]

I just used the "Delete" . Worked like a hot ....

 

[Sculpin]

Yeah, I just deleted it too. He wanted me to start fishing from shore...........like that's going to happen lol!!!.

Besides, I think it's best to never click anything Pippens clicked before .
