If this was at GamingBase.Net, and it was still online, I could do this myself You didn't see that. Really.

Anyway, there must be a spam wave going on. I also got one from FF7__Cloud.

What I find interesting, is the accounts being used aren't newly created. To me it looks like someone is going round hacking accounts which have been inactive for a while. Either that, is it possible a former member of staff has copy a of the user/ password database?

FF7__Cloud joined in 2002.

GBAtemp has a serious problem.

We're still looking into it, but it's something I've noticed too.

ryan_22_1 sent me one.

He was also a user from 2002... November 14th, so some hacker is having his fun here, and probably making money.

I doubt it, but is that site legit?

The MODs need to pay attention to the URL of the image they are linking to:

http://www.ndscardsale.com/mailsns/dstt.jpg

Costello needs to subsitute ndscardsale.com when used, like I'm a "poopy head" and "Fuzzy Kittens" and aswell as r4idscard.com

I really thought ndscardsale.com were better than that, but they need to be banned from this site. To me it looks like the've slipped up hosting that image on their own site.

What's taking him so long? If he's done it for "poopy head" and "Fuzzy Kittens", what's the delay? It would give them a reason to stop spamming.

^^^ It doesn't help people keep quoting the PM (It's the same PM for us all), and including the link as hyperlink. It only goes to further their cause, and is why Costello needs so substitute the names ASAP.
