Reqqie Dunlop?
Anyone else get a PM from a 'Reqqie Dunlop,' (not to be mistaken for our resident Reggie Dunlop)?
Here's the message, with the website censored out:
Hey there, just a quick note to let you know I've launched a new project,
http://******.com
I'd really appreciate if you could give a look at let me hear any feedback or thoughts you might have.
Thanks, really appreciated.
The filtered website happens to link to a porn website. Seems like a spam account.
I also got a similar spam PM from a lollergirl .

Got the same one. It would appear to be a spam account.

I got it as well.
I assumed it was Reggie Dunlop that PM'ed me so I took a look (props on the spammers for that, gotta give the devil his due).
All in all a well presented site, but not that great when it comes to content

Yeah, no way the real Reggie would ever send me an unsolicited PM.

I have now banned the offending account. Thanks to all who let us know.
Funny thing, they also PM'd the "Moderator" account.

Weird that a spammer would take the time to register an account based on an existing user.

The link in the original post is still active even though the text has been censored. Might want to break that.

I noticed from the user who sent the PM was a Draft Pick, so I knew it couldn't have been the Real Reggie Dunlop.
Really clever on using 2 q's... I'll give him that.

GOAT!

By the time I read my PM, his title was "Lifetime Suspension."
I was like... holy cow, did someone promote an Oiler fan to Mod?

Is it possible to register two people under the same user name?
Just looked and they used two "q" instead of two "g" but it looked the same.
Even Reg's imposters are clever buggers!

I got a PM as well and I thought okay Reggie Dunlop been around here for a long time so it must be legit.
Now that some idiot imposter can send us PM, if you ever receive any PM from me. Be very careful. I only PM when I really needed some help or question.

Ok I take away how clever they were but the fact they PM'ed the Moderator account.
Easy come, easy go. Some very smart acts are immediately followed up by a very dumb acts
