"Nigerian style" scams now on MS too!

By: vijaypadiyar | Posted Apr 02, 2009 | General | 435 Views | (Updated Apr 02, 2009 01:11 PM)

Today I got this M2M message from user henrykw99. I "distrusted" him but I don't know how to report him for spamming. I guess I'll mail support@mouthshut.com" target="_blank"> support@mouthshut.com too. But I think there should be a "report abuse" kind of option in MS where we can directly report users for abuse.


Here is the M2M message I received:
