Strange private message

[Kellyjelly]

I’ve just received a really odd private message, not sure what to do, I’ve never been on a forum before?! Do I just ignore or should I forward it to someone?

Sorry if this sounds daft but I’m totally clueless

If it's strange then don't reply or click any links that might be in it, forward it to Admin.

If in doubt ignore. Social media is a minefield which is why people are leaving Facebook by the droves. This is not a social media platform per sae but you still need to be aware. Take care.

Ive received messages from members here that were a continuation of a post, maybe with info the person didn’t want to post publicly. Ive not received anything inappropriate, thankfully.

It’s a request for help to distribute 4.5 million dollars for a very rich American lady that has been diagnosed with cancer and has days left to live. Lucky me eh?? 😂

OMG

It happens a lot on the forums, you aren't the first and won't be the last.

This is definitely a scam to get your bank account details. It has been around for years. As others have said forward to admin.

Kelly. Forward your post to the administrator. Bobd will have contact details. Forget and enjoy your weekend.

Hi Kelly

All you have to do is go to the bottom of that post and click on More and then on Report.
