I've just had a very strange PM from someone called Viviana, saying she likes my profile and wants me to get in touch via another link. Has anyone else had such nonsense?

    Please There is something important i want to tell you

    Miss viviana.

     THIS IS THE DAFTNESS.   Obviously not replying and deleting the message. Can't block her as she has no profile.

    p.s I have been into my settings and have been able to block this person.

    I've never had a pm like that from this site. But I do get begging emails or people wanting to pay huge sums of money into my bank account quite regularly. I wouldn't respond though, she wants you to give her your private email address as she wants you to write to hers.

    But she's right about one thing! You do sound a nice person.image

  • Miss Viviana? the name sounds a bit suspicious

    Blocking sounds like the best idea. It sounds very much like they're fishing for a gullible person who will beome their "friend" and find themselves emptying their bank account to help them when suddenly a family member needs an operation.

  • Went to my settings, won't let me ignore. Will try again later.

    Might be silly but I'm not daft. image

    Lily maybe if the poster actually posts something you could block from there. As you say name a bit suspicious, maybe a new career opportunity for me ?image

    Thank you Lizzie, so kind. I can be a little devil when I want. image

    Clari "gullible" maybe picked wrong person to target, or maybe a good one, you know Yorkshire folks image 

    Seriously, I would be interested to know if others get a PM.
