Default "elisabeth" SPAMMER

Everyone--Someone is spamming BuddySlim. I got a message from an "elisabeth" which is a common scam message. I'm not going to post it, but watch for this person--they are a scammer trying to get your money. I don't know that "elisabeth" herself is the scammer or if someone has just broken into her account. Just wanted to warn you all.
Hugs,
Angie

I got a message from this same person. Mine is from a Miss Elisabeth Benson. It is obviously a scam so be careful buddies.

I Got the spam, copied & forward to*buddyslim to report it before seeing you had*already started a forum.* The profile is the bare minimum, so I doubt that someone hacked into a fellow buddy's account... hopefully buddyslim will track her/him through the yahoo account listed and report her/him to that administrator as well!

I got that message*very early*this morning and immediately forwarded it to Dr. Marc as well as reporting it.* All somebody has to do is set up an account here and they have access to post messages.
That person can cause you no harm unless you're gullible enough to follow through on their request.* They just succeed in irritating people and taking up valuable space on the server.
