Wow.
Was that a e-mail? A private message?
If they are a member on the forum I can ban them.

This is Spam and the office has been notified of it.
If you receive any, delete it, don't reply in any way.

Thanks everyone.

Looks like this spammer sent close to 5000 pms

I have deleted all of them now.

I have also set it so that users can not register using terms like moderator, or administrator again.

cheers,
robb
