Visitor message, spam?

Any one else get a weird vistor message? It came from a user name " cherry Nguyen" and had links and words all cryptic. I didn't open any links and reported it, then delete d it. First time I have ever got anything like this. Just seeing if I was singled out or if others received this. I also checked out that account, it's suspended.

It happens every now and then. I guess they figure their odds are better if they post on profiles rather than on the boards. Or they don't know what they're doing. Either way, its just a different style of spamming. Nothing more, nothing less.

If the spammer has already been banned, just delete their message. If they haven't been banned yet, send me or another mod a PM (or report it) and we'll take care of them.

Thanks for responding. I did report it, deleted it and marked this person as ignore.
