Moog Music Forum

Hi, First post and don't want to speak badly about someone, but they are new members as of 17/02/10 last on 17/02/14 and seem to be still on. I don't understand Russian and since I'm new and they're new, I question the validity of this personal message, attachment and user. Don't see a way of having admin review it all.

Anyone? Thoughts on validity?

Thanks Burnsie

By the way, the Russian translates to a teeth whitening powder.

Probably could search the forum for those kinds of characters - Cyrillic - and clean house pretty well.

I am have the same issue. I copied and pasted the txt in google translate and it is an ad for portable battery packs. I with there was a way to report these users and/or block. If anyone knows how to do this please let us know and ban these phishing messages

Yes I had two similar Russian messages - please check the security of the forum - thanks.

The moderators here are doing a pretty good job still, because some other forums elsewhere are inundated with such spam.

Thumbs-up to them.
