An occuring problem Jan 14, 2012

This morning I also received this scam email from someone (allegedly?) located in the UK.

I've posted in 2 other threads regarding this scammer. Additionally I've asked the site manager to permanently remove that person's profile. This is getting out of hand.

Have a nice weekend.

Regards
Thayenga
