Re: Important - Fake ***** warning message
I've had a similar message and posted a warning about it. Can I ask the moderators to post warnings like this as a sticky until the culprit is found and dealt with?

Re: Important - Fake ***** warning message
got 2 of these but as it purported to come from a brand new USA member then it was pretty obvious it wasn't from admin and an online forum would not know if your home poot had a ***** on it anyway.
However would someone please ban SuperModer who sent the 2nd one like they have the 1st poster ta!

Re: Important - Fake ***** warning message
I've just logged in for the first time in several weeks... was quite excited to see that there were 5 messages for me - usually I don't get any at all (hint!!!)- but they were all fake ***** warnings, from various user id's, none of them from a profile of moderator status.
... Just ignore them - the children will get bored soon enough.
