I received this PM and not really sure who this is? Just wondering if anyone received the same one or knows this person? Just thought is kind of odd....

Lynnette - I am moderator on a few other forums (with a different focus than this one), but that message reads like spam - from someone whose first language isn't English.  They want your e-mail address so they can send your computer more spam with possible virus or spyware attached.

"Ignore it" is my best advice.

Hope this helps.

Yep probably spam but I will let you know that ymail is one of the types of email addresses you can pick from yahoo.  I also have a ymail address.

I got the same type of PM, it is a phishing attempt basically.  They want to be your friend to pump info from you and maybe steal your identity, or see how much the can get you to do for them.  Like recash a check, or mail them something.  Don't go there just delete them, or click report it like I did.
