seomarketingpro is spamer --> please delete

Hello,
I guess 'some' of you got a PM by "seomarketingxxx".

Hi username

I hope you do not mind me PM'ing you. I'm new to the forum and I was hoping that If I had any questions I could ask you at any time?
I only ask because some people are a little funny / weird about it.

Thanks.

Sorry I sent you a PM reporting the troll/spammer before I got to this thread.

We'll also be looking into a software fix that will prevent this in the future.

^^^Am I hearing image verification registration?

Actually, image verification is already part of registration. This must have been a real person.

Another method is to set permissions to prevent people from sending PMs who have never posted in the forum.

^that would work.

Thanks again for the heads up, I banned him and deleted all his sent messages. I've been getting better at catching them early, :p
