    I've reported a couple recently, and all traces were quickly swept into the bin.

    Thank you, again, BHTeam!

    I should only have to LET the technology work for me. If I have to MAKE the technology work for me, it's not a tool - It's a boat anchor. And I've got better things to do than manage boat anchors, especially if I don't have a boat.

    Some days we are very busy.

    Experience is what you get when you thought you were getting something else.

    Major props to the Mods!

    I had not been able to check in till just now, and I didn't notice any SPAM at all, so they've been busy.

    Thanks, guys.

    It seems the spam-bots are busy all over - I've seen a few hit some Yahoo Groups...

    We are, indeed, fortunate here at BH to have such a good group of mods & admins. Much of their work is unseen, but I hope they realize how much we all appreciate it!

    I got a private message that is spam, but I did not see a triangle for reporting it to the moderators. I can tell that someone has reported it, because the member is now banned. How does a member report a private message spam?

    Just PM any Mod, preferably quoting the messsage, and let them know.

    See this thread, also stickied in this forum:

    Spam Messages Sent As PMs
    Hook's Stories

    Hook's Palm TX Help Page

    Google (ASUS) Nexus 7, wifi+data (AT&T), Android 4.2.2, stock and un-rooted (so far )
    LG Nexus 4: AT&T (Gophone), Android 4.4.2, stock and unrooted-- and probably staying that way.
