So only a few hours since joining the forum I get a nigerian criminal scam in a PM from "jeeeeb":

will also like to know you the more,and i want you to send a mail to my email
address so i can give you my picture for you to know whom l am.Here is my email
address (Jelinbaby@yahoo.co.uk)
I believe we can move from here.I am waiting for
your mail to my email address (Jelinbaby@yahoo.co.uk) Remember the distance, color or age
does not matter but love matters allot in life Please reply me with my email
Jelin
can a forum admin please nuke this criminal?
And please implement forum anti-spam features?
Anyone else had any spam ...? I haven't received a siingle thing since I joined. Not really sure how I could ... AFAIK there is not an email address associated with my Line 6 account. May be wrong.

That's because you are a Line6 user from the future where e-mail no longer exists.
I can tell by the amount of posts you have since Jun 27th of 43450.
OMG ... when I get back to my real time my inbox is going to be so wasted !!!!
How do you know it is a scam?
Maybe Jelin really wants to get to know you!! ![]()
After all, the distance, color or age does not matter!! ![]()
but seriously, can you click on jeeeeb's profile and post a link to it?
Wow, the forum is completely broken now. I'm getting "unauthorized" when I try to read the PM.
Go to http://line6.com/support/pm.jspa and then private messages, then click on the PM. And I get
Unauthorized
There was an error, please check below
It appears you're not allowed to view what you requested. You might contact your administrator if you think this is a mistake.
What's going on?
My bet is the guy's account was deleted, so the PM he sent you no longer exists.
I have also never received any spam in my community account FWIW. sucks to be an outlier, but I wouldn't expect this to be a recurring issue.
I get that error sometimes. Then when I navigate by clicking "My Stuff" then PM I can get in.
I forwarded the profile to Line6.
In the meantime let us know if Jelin is a looker!! ![]()
I got that weird pm from jeeb also. I started a similar thread in the Line 6 Lounge.
Stay in the mix and in the know.
