I received a PM from someone with the screen name lawanmike92.

All it said was "I AM A SCAMMER"

Looks like he/she signed up May 4th, and is a 'Retired Member', so maybe already been booted?

SAD that we get scammers like this in here. It makes difficult, especially for new comers who are honest. I used to trust everyone I dealt with here, now I am finding myself to be less trusting of those who I have not dealt with or don't have a long standing history here.
