Watch out for spam on here...

Just had a direct message from Connolly 89 offering me £2.5 million with some link that I did not click on, member only joined yesterday! I have reported it.

Definitely a spam

[Popstess Graduate]

reported it and the profile too, the link is a legit news article and has apparently been used a lot to scam people into sharing their personal details.

Nice yo know I'm sharing that 2.5 with other lovely people. We are so worth it.

I got the same message... hideous scammers. Glad you reported it.

So many thanks for reporting it immediately. It really helps to keep this community safe. 🙏🙏🙏👍🏽

We're lucky that our running forums have received very little attention from spammers in the past. There are automatic HU routines that spot and stop a lot of would be spam from ever seeing the light of day. Reporting anything you suspect is spam is absolutely the right action, and should result in swift action to block it from our central HU team. Thanks for doing so.

I received it too when I was out and about. Glad too see that it has disappeared from my messages. Well done HU.

Yes, there's also lov85855 who apparently has already been removed because their direct message wasn't even visible to me. A search on HU pointed to warnings on a couple other HU forums...
