• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Spammers on flight sim forums....

I got two emails yesterday, notifying me of PMs on two other flightsim forums I belong to. In both cases, it was from the same "person", named: mignulikz

I made the mistake of opening the link to the first one, and it turned out to be a porn advertisement. I reported the second one as spam.

Just wanted to warn you folks. I haven't received a PM from this guy on Simouthouse yet....but if you get any msgs from "mignulikz", delete them.

If I do not recognize the sender to start with ... I don't open any email, it all gets deleted.

I don't care if it is the federal government telling me I won the lottery ... if I am not expecting email from them or I do not recognize the sender's address, I don't bother opening it.

That's probably why I'm still poor to this day.

:help: :173go1:

i got one from a flight sim sight i haven't visited in over a year, just last week. funny you should post this was it the flightsim network?
 
Don't click on the link. I guess it belongs to a bot net and tries to infect your system. Maybe it has to do with Conficker.
 
I just got one from Project AI forum. Haven't been there in a LONG time. Thanks for the HU, Chief!
 
I normally would never have opened such a link, but it was from a flight sim forum, and never had a problem before. One was Combatace.com.

I also got one of these as a PM. Did not open it and let Panther know....I think he banned it.

Of course, he may have thought I was a spam and banned me....

IT'S ALL SO COMPLICATED!!
 
Mine also came from Project AI where I haven't been for a while, announcing I had a PM.
I normally never click unsolicited stuff, but this one had all the right forum information about me.
If it is a bot, it is darn clever and I am duly infected.
Some maintenance needed tonight.
