Murcchachosa Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I got these spam too. I didnt open it when I saw a link that Ive never heard about it. iefa.ru Russians are excellent hackers and makes many of these f*cking sites. These members just sent a pm with "Please help" in a link and "I need your help" And surprised the same link wich its ended with .ru. But good tips above. If its end in nothing, dont click it. If its end with .ru, dont click it. BTW, please could pple say what happened when they clicked them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agent17 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 This is the second time I received one of these messages. I hate getting PM's, I always think it is bad news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girish Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 iefa.ru Is this the site? Well, it redirects you to this -> http://sabl.ru/ I'm not sure what exactly it is, but all that it does is that it loads a new captcha image every time I hit Enter. It's not listed as harmful, neither does my Kaspersky detect anything suspicious with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperwire93 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 On McAfee it's detected as "we scanned million of sites, but haven't tested this site". Probably the site just established. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGanteks Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 When you get a PM, click on sender's profile, if that guy has 0 posts, just delete the PM, that would be the best advice from me. I also got the 2 PM's from those guys that were banned in the last few days, but just deleted them, learned my lesson from last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The .ru could stand for Russia, which means russian hackers are back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copperwire93 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I got it too, any ideas why that bastard always send to same users? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpx Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 i have an idea how we could avoid such spambots. it should be possible in the forum software to restrict new users from sending messages to other users unless they are member of the forum for about 1 or 2 weeks or something. or they have to have a certain amount of posts. all is possible. at least in other forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murcchachosa Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Screw those f*cking bastards. How the f*ck they did it?? I got a dumb email with pm name "uuhhhh" and in the PM "Check this pic very easy" Immediatley I saw that link rebla.ru. WTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cursed Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) I haven't recieved any "Hello" or "Uhhhhh" messages here with the .ru links, but I have had loads on other sites.

Seddo Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Just got the same. I have never been PM spammed ever but i've got 3 in a short amount of time now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharmingCharlie Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Never really understood the point of doing this sh*t to be honest, but there you go. I don't think there is much we can do about it other then ban the account post spamming. We do keep an eye out for "odd named" registrations but that doesn't really help much when you look at some of the weird names our regular users have .
