I just got the same pm from the same user and have sent feed back.

The message limit for users was accidentally raised allowing this scammer to send hundreds of messages, which was really unhelpful. (Slaps own wrist for that one).
All deleted now, and the user banned.
I don't want to discuss this too much publically, as this is a cat and mouse game where it will eventually become too much effort for the spammer and they will move on to easier pastures.

believes in the theory that anyone who is good at chess must necessarily be bad at human interaction and easy to scam. If so, it's forgotten that engines don't read PMs 😛.
