exchemist Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 For the second time now in recent weeks, when logging in I get a message towards the bottom of the screen saying "help me", with a note that I have a personal message. This message disappears after a few seconds, without any further keystrokes from me. On neither occasion has there been any unread personal message in my In box. I don't like this. Is it a feature, a bug, or has the forum, or my laptop, been hacked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks yes it could be it, except my mystery message says "help me" instead of C-19. But if it's a bot or scammer that posts a PM and then gets banned he, she or it has done it to me twice now with the same message. But at any rate, from reading the previous thread on your mystery messages, it seems I need not worry too much about malware or hacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
