Default Spammer?

What's up with this lol? I recieved a PM today and it said:

Quote:
Sorry to msg you out of the blue. Here's the thing. I wrote a book together with a friend. My boyfriend keeps saying it's no good. I think he's just jealous tho. He's a big time poster here, so I told him I'm going to pick a random person here, and ask them, and we ended up betting on it. So go to *** and call it either way. Good or no good. Thanks.
I'm not sure if that's a real person or not. I didn't click on the link out of fear from a virus or something.

Let me know if you guys want the guy (or girls) name. Don't want to post it up if it's a real user here.

Looks like she/he is trying to act like she/he doesn't know who is doing the spamming.
Bunch of people are pretty pissed. One guy even made mention of hackin' her/him right back.
Screw the book, I'm more interested in the drama unfolding over there.

Opps...too late.

If you're going to spam forums, don't pick tech sites to do so, they're just full of computer savi hacks just looking for a reason.

Edit: Damn, the link's working again. I thought someone already got'em.

Yep, that's him (or her).

Spamming computer sites isn't exactly the smartest thing to do.
