    Whats the rule, and procedure here for PM Spam? Been getting alot of link building spam since i started posting in the link sales area.. they all say "Thanks for your request.. " Bleh, I haven't requested anything .. I'm not buying :p I'm selling ;)

    So do ya guys just delete these, or do ya report them here?

    You can do either. I tend just to ignore them.

    Are they trying to sell you something, or?

    If u really think they are spam, Try to forward them to moderators and they might do something regarding it.

    Usually nothing can be done regarding the PM spams...

    I would add the senders to the 'ignore list' if I get spam pms .
    Luckily I haven't got any spam pms yet ;)
