John Walker Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Received a message showing as from Alamy member services. It states a member wishes to converse with me and to click on the link provided. It might be spam etc so I've not clicked on it. Anyone else had one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Walker Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 http://discussion.alamy.com/index.php?/topic/5800-mods-i-cannot-report-a-pm/ Thanks Spacecadet - I did a search before posting but the title of the previous thread on this matter didn't match what I was searching under. Looks like I was right not to click on the link . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ann Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Now that this weekend scam mass messaging has hit Alamy, I'd prefer they disable messaging over the weekend, rather than give scammers a full weekend pass to prey on members. (Of course, it would be good to put something/someone in place to deal with the problem and keep 24/7messaging, but....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gervais Montacute Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Haha. Ann I just clicked on your website and I saw your Boxter photos. Great! I ordered an S about 3 weeks ago in grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losdemas Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 TagListed (RSS scammer profiles): some poor girl has even had her photo used. Like the location, though ("Location: new jork city, Senegal") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Price Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Hi, I too was quite suspicious, Received a message from Miss Rosine and responded via messaging and received an almost immediate reply that she wanted me to contact via personal email. Uh no thanks. Good to hear it wasn't just me. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
