Karen,
please don't let it bother you.

well meaning people are deceived and taken advantage of all the time.

don't let the many bastards take away your good intentions...and best wishes, especially during this holiday season.

We have been getting a lot of spam recently so some of us are getting attuned, but we always give people benefit of doubt unless it’s blindingly obvious.
Good to see you back, hope you have a really good Christmas and a new year to look forward to.

You're right, @RD - this post is everywhere; but what's its purpose? Is it just to sound out vulnerable fora as targets for a subsequent spam deluge?

It's posted on non-English forums too, so maybe it's a rogue 'bot (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spambot#Forum_spambots).

Somebody testing part of a 'automated' program connecting to Servers. Maybe later added to some more sophisticated part testing defenses trying to get in gaining 'privileges'. There's a lot of 'ready made' programs existing on the net, for 'script kiddies' if I remember right.


And good to see you Karen :)
