Default Private Messages Spam

It has come to my attention that some of you may have received spam via the PM system. The user has been banned and steps put in place to prevent this happening again (people with 0 posts can only PM admin). Should any of you receive any spam via PM then please let me know so these people can be dealt with. Thanks!

Yes, that user spammed several people and has since been banned. As I said, just let me know if you guys spot anything else fishy. We don't need people (probably a bot) like that on here.
