I'm putting this out now, because I feel everyone needs to know.
On two different forums that I am a part of, from this same person, I received a PM telling me that a virus had been detected on my machine, and to click a link to fix the problem.
While the link appears legitimate enough, the man is a spammer, and it's most likely a virus!
I don't necessarily think that we will be hit by this person, however I can't say that for sure. And I know that you are all a part of many different forums, which may be at a higher risk due to more traffic.
Either way, be aware to NOT CLICK THAT LINK. Report him to the local administrator if you see him on a different forum.
