Has anyone else had spam messages on the Genes Reunited messaging service?
I had a message today from one of my contacts (this person was originally a genuine contact) which was a 'phishing' scam trying to obtain all my personal details on the promise of me receiving an inheritance from a distant relative.
I often get this sort of thing via e-mail and most get filtered through to my spam box, but I certainly didn't expect to get them through a closed messaging system.
If the spammers have found their way into GR, it doesn't bode well for Ancestry's new messaging service.
