I'm sorry for your loss. You must be going through a lot right now.
And, yes, this is a wonderful family that will support you. We're so lucky to have it.
Thinking of you,
Lee Lee

Spammer just hit me with a PM. Admin's please looking into the forum admin preferences to see if security can be tightened.

Just received my second one from the name below again. The first one was May 25th. This one shows the spammer as a user and join date is May 20th. I hope this info might be of some help to Johnny.

Hey ya'lls, I got a message in my email, saying that I had a private message here at the cpaptalk forum, but when I checked my PM's there was nothing there, so I assumed it had been identified as SPAM, and removed by the admin.
Best Regards to ALL!

Howdy,
We are cleaning up spam as we can. The fix is spec'd and queued up for coding. Shouldn't be long now.

I am new here, and glad to meet you. I am so sorry for the loss of your son. The great thing about here is that we all care about each other, and it's not limited to our poor quality of sleep. I know you don't know me, but if you need someone to listen, PM me anytime.

Hey Carley,
Very sad to hear of your loss!!! Sincere condolences!!!
Thanks for bringing up the topic!!! Thus far my inbox has been clean, but this will put me on the alert!!!!
I'm sure Johnny and the admins will come up with a workable solution which will fix it until the next imaginative scumbag figures out a way to spread their "crap"......
Ya know what's sad, is that this method of "marketing" must bring in some business or they'd stop - though it's a low effort method of "advertising" (if that's what you want to call it!)
Take care
cheers
