Bumping due to another recent phishing attempt on the site.

Number of phishing messages I've deleted from my RPG Insanity account: 2.

Number of phishing messages I've deleted from my personal email account: probably 100,000

Number of phishing messages I've deleted from my business email account: probably 1 million.

@victar, yeah, Email accounts are getting the most phishing/SPAM messages and there's not much anyone can do except deleting all of them.

Here it didn't happen many times although at one point there was so huge SPAM I almost couldn't keep up with deleting each message (only @msg-commander can delete all SPAM topics through a few clicks. I had to delete 50-200 SPAM messages from Forums manually every single day for some time, which usually took 20 minutes up to an hour.. I'm glad I don't have to spend time doing this anymore.

Just to make sure. PM stands for (not post meridiem, the other one) private message, right?

Yep. PM or Private Message means the same as DM or Direct Message. PMs and DMs are plural versions of Private Messages or Direct Messages.
