I have been getting messages from men asking me to email them back and wanting to discuss oil business and crap. And strange women wanting to "get to know me better"... Posting stuff under my pictures...

What is going on? Anyone else getting these?

I like coming here because it's a wonderful place where i can talk to fellow band members.... I really feel violated. I did report it to Alex... lets see. I hope it stops.

I posted about the same thing this morning. Several of us have received it.

Report it, and delete it. It's phishing.....it's a scam. I get this crap through my regular email, and was surprised to see it here. This is the second one since being on the site

Yup I got it too.

Go to the bottom right of the message and report it so Alex can remove the idiot from the forums.

i just saw your post.... i guess i should have looked better to see if anyone else posted... lol

Even thought i have thick skin and can joke with the best of them.... I really feel violated.

This stuff doesn't bother me when it comes through my regular email. But coming through LBT is weird.

I'm guessing that we'll see more new posts regarding this....

Yup, I've received them, got one today. I had one last week contact me through private chat also. Then had some weird person contact me that through private chat. I started chatting and she /he did not know what banding was when I told them and asked if they were getting it they said "why not", and they were not over weight, I don't know what they wanted so I just said I had to go. Weird.

over the years there has been periodic waves of infestation of trash spammers, both here and in my own private email accounts

Alex does a great job of cleaning up when such is reported.

Yes, it's annoying and a PIA. Don't know what normal rational people can do about it.

Sort of like pissing in the swimming pool, IMHO.

Don't let the stupid mischief of the addled make too big of a divot in our day.....

Exactly.... i felt that LBT was kind of my own little special place... ughhh now this crap.
