These messages are NOT from the administrator

Many of you have received messages from a user "jurdreda" with the title "From Administrator" containing a single line of "Important! New Forum Rules!" This is NOT a link to any place on FAO, and it does NOT contain any new forum rules. Odds are that it contains malware or viruses or both. Don't click the link - It was not sent by any members of the Free Allegiance staff and I doubt they even know what's at the other end.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious to me. You guys would (I assume) make a thread/stickie before you would mass message.

I would send out a PM notice that says to discount that message. Chances are that people who do not get many messages will read the most recent PM first since that would be at the top. Then there would be good warning.

I clicked the link without paying attention, and it took me to a porn site. Not good when you are a 16 year old kid.

When TE gets a chance, it's highly likely that he will delete the messages like he did last time.

As I mentioned TE has taken action and deleted these PMs

Thanks TE! Glad we won't have to worry about this stuff anymore
