As you may have noticed Message Boards about the internet are on occasion attacked by mass postings of spam. Buffy-boards is not immune to this plague. We try to delete such threads as soon as possible, but on occasion you may get to one first.
So here's the warning, for God's sake don't follow the directions in the spam post to contact them. Not only does it encourage them, but the practice of connecting to a spammer via internet, or phone carries with it possible dangers which if you haven't heard about may surprise you. These include -
* Phishing
* Vishing
* Bot, or virus Infestation
* Information Theft
* Selling access to your now infected machine to other evil doers.
