    I got a PM from a person named Dorksta, and this is what he said

    Hello,

    I have been recruiting for a team to help with starting up a multi-platform online gaming forum, and I was curious if you would be interested. Honestly, the reason I am asking you is because it appears we have a lot in common. I am also from Texas, and I am a lifeguard, and I am interested in programming. You drew my attention because you are passionate about his community, and your passion would be helpful for the community we would be starting. Let me know if you are at all interested.

    -Dorksta

    I know spam when I see it. He used information in my profile, and I know from personal experience this is probably not a real person.
     
    Anyone else get any PMs from this user?


    Thanks for the heads up Karinmo.
     
    I didn't get a PM from that guy as far as I know. The only stuff I had when I got back were just likes notifications.

    Still quite a serious issue though, so well done Dema for bringing it up.
     
    Dealt with it.

    While we always appreciate the reports, please use the report feature to alert staff of these things in future. PMs are reportable by the report icon (
    [PokeCommunity.com] Spammer Alert
    ) just like most other types of message, and the report will reach the staff much more quickly and discreetly by this avenue. Of course, what you did here was fine and was helpful to us, but it's just something to note to help us deal with these things more efficiently.

    Thanks guys.
