Have you reported it to Mumsnet using the Report button?

That's interesting. They apparently sent me 2 private messages but by the time I went to look at them they had already been deleted. As had a private message by another poster.
I'm not used to this flurry of private messages . I dont have them disabled because I dont expect to receive any.
Thanks for your thread OP.

Yes I got one too but it was deleted by the time I logged in.

Thanks peeps, glad I'm not the only one! Well, I'm not glad anyone's getting scam messages obviously!

I'm pretty sure I did report and I definitely blocked it.
I think something similar happened a year or so back.

Hope nobody clicked on it! X
