Tap the 3 dots next to the message and you can report it.

That user has one solitary, very random post, here.

I had a weird random message the other day too. I ignored it thinking it was sent in error but I'll report.

Wow you have a lot of notifications.

I had a weird random message recently about verification but it disappeared so I assumed it was an error.

I have the same thing - I never look at them so they just stack up!

Definitely report it, it’s so catfish like! 50p says he’s a retired Navy admiral who is now a bridge engineer, he has an eight year old son who is at boarding school because his mother is tragically dead.

I’ve been on mm for fifteen years and I’ve never once opened or looked at a private message.

You can switch them off! I never have any little red numbers!

Much better to start threads like this on the Site Stuff board OP where you are likely to get a reply from MN admin.
Another poster flagged up a problem with PMs on the 13th.

I think you should string him along and share replies here for our entertainment… but I like to wind up scammers.
