Hopefully mods will pick this up soon.

Today I received a message that said it was sent from Visajourney.com

I searched in the member list and see that cynthia2net has registered on the forum today. I believe it's a bot and will start spamming everyone. Mods, please take care of this.

Looks like someone signed up here and sent a spam via the "contact via email" option in your profile. You can turn that on/off in the control panel (allow members to contact you via email -- they can not see your email address).

I will ban that member right now though as this is SPAM and a violation of the VJ TOS. Thanks for letting me know and sorry for the trouble!

It looks like they only sent this to two members. We specifically limit the number of emails a person can forward to members to prevent this type of thing :). They have been banned and IP blocked. I should also note that this was a person who sent this (with generic scripted email). We have pretty good spam control to prevent bots.
