Getting junk PMs

kctopitz · 20-05-2019, 10:09

Received crypto currency spam PM from user PYRobert.

There should really be a way to report these messages from the inbox.

Same user "PYRobert" here. He's spamming for Bitcoin Investments.

Try to get back it from the waste bin and send it to effendi

Same user is spamming me. Is it possible to stop people PM'ing ALL? If they had to PM each user individually they'd soon stop. Or maybe upgrade v Bulletin!

From Wikipedia: "[v Bulletin 3] was launched in 2004. In July 2010, the BBC reported that there was a serious flaw in vBulletin software that allows anyone to easily access the database username and password. vBulletin 5 was released in 2012. In late 2017, a post by Technical Support Lead, Wayne Luke, confirmed that vBulletin 3 was now considered to be 'End of Life' software, with no further development of the series planned."

In the meanwhile I'd recommend everyone change their password, especially if they use it elsewhere.

Im using IE 7.
Any insight would be appreciated

You're using a browser which is so outdated I can only guess that you're still using Windows XP, which is no longer supported and no longer receiving security updates. You shouldn't be using either to access the internet, and any problems you're getting (and I'm sure there will be more) are a result of this. If you can't afford a new computer, I highly suggest installing Linux (an alternative operating system) and using that to access the internet. Lubuntu is a version of Linux designed to run on older computers.

The above said, this is totally off-topic. This isn't the place to discuss your computer problems. I'd advise seeking help from someone locally if you need it.
