Apparently, according to this crappy scammer, I've been reported! biggrin And they be asking me for my password! Oh boy! And they're threatening me with ban!

THIS IS A SCAM. IF YOU GET THIS, DO NOT ANSWER IT. SIMPLY REPORT IT. GOOD. OKAY.

Scammers ask for your username in the PM. But how did they send the PM without knowing your username, is what I'm meaning. It's kinda confusing. :B
