Nope, I got it here. And I never used Yahoo Mail also...

They are from users in createblog.

Something like this has happened before. I think the members who were PMed just ignored the weird messages, and they stopped soon after. You can block PMs from those two users for now.

Yeah, these just pop up every once in a while. It's just a part of the cB life.

I've gotten a few of those here & there. It's really nothing to worry about. I just ignore them & move on. You can always block them like Cristy said.

The easiest way to stop them is to click on the PM Block List and add their name. They are annoying, but if you block them they will stop.

they're not that bad..it's just a message but if they send multiple messages, jut block them like dee said.

so can mods delete those accounts??

If they are advertising, I would recommend sending a PM to one of the admins so that their account can be disabled. Blocking may help prevent you from getting those spam PMs, but notifying an admin could prevent others from getting those PMs as well.

But it's not like they are even advertising anything. They are just sending a creepy pm with horrible grammer... What's the point of that?

Wtf, are you serious? Proof preez.

Hmm, I think if we open the message, this may cause a certain action to spread around createblog. The more people open the spam message, the more spam pms are sent to other members. Just sayin'
