Looks like you were targeted by a spammer. It is important you do not respond to these PM's and definitely do not follow any links from them. If you get any more simply delete them and report the sender to a moderator. The person who sent you the PM has probably already been deleted and banned but just for future reference.

definitely do not follow any links from them.

May I suggest removing the link from the OP so others are not tempted?

Absolutely!

My fav spam ever was from someone wanting a "dwarf zebra rabbit bunny, preferably 3 weeks old"
I have no clue what that is, but sure as heck would not be weaned at 3 weeks old.

Thanks, sorry I wasn't trying to get anyone to click on the url, I did not click on it, but didn't even think about someone else.
My apologies.

So does this mean I shouldn't have sent the $200? I got a similar message, and it sounded too good to pass up!

The only strange PMs I get are from the Mods reminding me of the TOS.

Send me double of what you sent them ($400) and I’ll guarantee quadruple of what you would have gotten from them!

Sounds like PMsyndrone… should we disinfect after each visit or better yet not go into threads where spammers are hibernating so we don’t spread PMs?

Can you hold on a few days? I'm waiting to collect some money from a Nigerian price, then I can go ahead with the $400
