    Hey Guys don’t know who is doing this but I got an email today that said I had a private message on the ark forums it was generated by the webmaster@arkadiaforum.com so it is from the official site. So when I logged in to check my messages there was no messages what I think some people are doing is spamming your email from the forums then deleting the PM can this be done? Here is a copy of the email I got saying I had a message:

    DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL!
    ***************************

    This is the message that was sent:

    Do you want to read people's mind? Look at my site
    (website info left out)

    Again, please do not reply to this email. You must go to the following page to reply to this private message:

    Now I did edit out the website info as I don’t want to help promote what spam scam they are pulling but thought everyone might want to be aware of this kind of thing especially the forum mods

    this PM spammer already got the :banhammer2: treatment (don't worry didn't heal it after), so no need to worry.

    But if you receive an email like this, it's because you have set your settings to be notified by email if you receive a pm on the forum so nothing to be worried about, and if you get something similar in the future just report it and it will get the same or improved
