smithy888 - Spam?

[mad greek]

I just got a random PM from this guy asking me if I wanted to buy a hardtail?!?! Apart from the fact that I already own one, why would I get picked out of random to be offered a bike!?!

Has this happened to anyone else also? Maybe this guy should be warned or banned if it's a bot..

Cheers,

Could be a simple mistake.. ie.. PM'ed wrong member

As far as I am aware smithy888 is a member from Adelaide with a hardtail frame for sale.

Have you replied to his PM ?

Yeah it might just be a simple mistake or you mmight of stated you were looking at buying a frame and he sent you a link to his.

may i suggest changing the title of your thread...

Why is that?

I was online, I got a random PM from someone asking if I wanted to buy a bike.

I was wondering if the message was indeed a random, or whether he went and PM'ed all users online at the time to ask.

I don't believe I need to change the topic title, I'm not blaming anyone; merely questioning what happened.

I didn't reply back to the bloke because I wasn't sure if it was either;

1. A bot

2. Spam to those users who were online at the time

In summary, I am still yet to believe that I need to change the thread title. It's an enquiry, not an attack. Those who deem it an attack are obviously unaware of the way I posed the question.
