I have a PM with a title in Russian.
It's from GordonBoiff
Of course I won't open it.

Anyone else got one?

[HardSaint]

did you say something anti-semitic?

[Yorkeys]

Yes, got one too.

He's selling heaps of really cheap military hardware and ammunition, rocket launchers etc, stuff left over from the Ukraine war, he can even organise finance...just click on the link.

So the situation is that the forum is under attack by Bots.

Most of the time they’re trying to start new threads and I can nip it in the Bud by rejecting them. I block a large amount a day.

However… occasionally one figures out how to PM which slips through the filter, which is annoying.

Please report it and I’ll have the user blocked

I received one as well

How do you get rid of it without opening it?

How do you get rid of it without opening it?

On the right side of the PM, you should be able to check a box (tick a box). After you mark the PM, scroll down to the bottom of the page where there is a drop box that says mark/unmark important messages (or something similar).
Click on that and a 3-4 options come up, one says delete marked messages, then click go. That should do it

Done, thank you
