Spam bot PMing me

SynthpopAddict

There was an odd PM in my forum inbox this morning.  Fortunately there were no links in it, as I'm guessing the forum software either removed it or the bot was attempting to put some kind of attachment into the message which didn't make it.  I'm pretty sure it was not an actual forum user as the username had some kind of long alphanumeric string in it.  I deleted the PM already, but that's kind of disturbing.

Hi SynthpopAddict, Thank you for letting us know. Would  you be able to send me the username via PM, please?

@kh_jenn, I immediately deleted the PM, so can't give you the username as there's no way to retrieve deleted messages, but if I get any more such PMs will let you know.  Thanks.  I had the impression it was a bot trying to advertise porn.
