    Patricia

    Who the hell is Patricia?

    Her profile reads:
    Patricia
    Banned

    So if she's banned how did she PM me with this crap:

    Hi,I'm new here, how's it going?"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein---Patricia

    I hope Barry S got it as well

    Re: Patricia

    I suspect you've been spammed, but that the PM was sent before the spamming was spotted / reported?

    No. But I think I may look Patricia up and see what other pearls of wisdom she has.

    As spam goes it's rather - abrupt, isn't it? Where's the bit about viagra or penis enlargement?

    Because I like to have this information to hand around to those less fortunate than myself.

    I think the mods deleted the PMs from "her".

    I also rather imagine that, as it's from an "industrious" spammer, you really should not try the URL/link in the PM (or in the original post) as you might find it installs some virus or other malware.

    I tried to, but as the mods deleted the PM it just went to the main forum screen - I hope I haven't encouraged a virus to my new PC

    Good point! I've removed "her" web site from these posts.

    Re: Patricia

    Id actually like to see it to see if there is anything dodgy. I did read the PM but I guessed she'd spammed everybody from the "banned" tag and deleted it right away - i hate spam
