Hi guys. Just letting you know, i have also received a PM from this Vinnytrainz this morning. He wanted something to do with a level crossing(?). Did a quick search of his name to find out what he was talking about; and let him know who he should contact instead.
I sent a polite reply asking him to double check who he was sending mail to. Hopefully we can find out who this is and stop him, hey?

This post was the only on that came up with his name. I sent a polite reply asking him to double check who he was sending mail to. Hopefully we can find out who this is and stop him, hey?

As we've said already, we need to know how he is sending PMs to members without actually being a registered member of Planet Auran and the forums.
It shouldn't be possible, so something is up.
We need to hear from Auran on this.
@Paulzmay; I've asked Auran to re-instate the registered user flatcar so many times over the years, but to no avail.
As far as I can tell, we can't do any more to track this person down on our end, so it's up to Auran to get to the bottom of it.
Angela, is there any chance of taking a screen grab of the PM and showing it here?
Smiley.

I've got one from the same vinnytrainz, same request. It's being ignored especially after reading this thread.
Just made a brew and had a nasty thought. Join date Nov 2008. No posts. Very odd. Is he/she a scammer or whatever. If you reply to their pm by e-mail they will then have your e-address, could they then hack into your system. Bank details ??
E-mail address supplied was vvtiet@rediffmail.com. DO NOT USE.

Ed and all,
Also notice that when you click on his name.... it does NOT open the user profile.
Regards.

Yeah, he is listed in the member's list, but I can't understand why it's not linked from the post. Devious forces are afoot, me thinks!

It's snowy here.
Pertaining to Vinny, best to just ignore him. I've seen his name around before, can't place where, but I'm sure I have. Let the mods deal with it, that's why they're mods.
As to Ed's post linking us to the thread, and then to the post. I think it's just a glitch in the system (?). By his post, he doesn't seem like the typical "scammer" or whatever you may call it.
My 2 cents,
Take care,

Angelah, I've had a very persistent person over on my DHR forum asking for the password to unlock our secured ZIP files. I wonder if the IP addresses would coincide. I started out responding to him/her and then realized that this was just an attempt to bypass our DHR password security system.
He/she kept asking for link to the post where the password is given here on this forum claiming that the one we list "didn't work". If this person doesn't have an account here at Auran, then the link wouldn't work.
I think it best that you ignore this person.
As for 'vinnytrainz' could you simply put him on your ignore list?

He's also a member of the board here:
http://trainz.web2web.sk/userinfo.php?uid=3252
but never posted (although I wonder how many PM's he's sent and received).

I've spent the last couple of hours sorting out/removing/installing VST plugins for my Music software, and any musicians here will tell you that can be great fun and a real nightmare (they've needed sorting for a while).
So when I saw the opportunity to leave the rest of them until tomorrow and go on a little investigation, I took it.
I hope that this person is a kid.
Immature kids can be forgiven for thinking everything in life should be free, but if it's an adult then It's quite embarrassing and really rather sad.

Did a bit of digging and this person is low life scum, reason for saying this is that not only does 'vvtiet' show up on a lot of forums asking for keys it shows up on a lot of warez and bit-torrent sites, but digging a bit deeper into the web mire finds 'vvtiet' on child porn sites, no I did not visit these sites, I found reference to vvtiet as a member using vvtiet@etc.
How he (found a reference to his gender) managed to send PMs without being a member is something Auran need to look into 
Cheers David

Hi All
I will pass this onto the admin next week, for him to look into.
I can say he is registered, as I've had some helpdesk tickets from them.
I will, however, remove the referenced email address.
Until I speak to the admin, I will lock this thread, only as a preventative of anyone taking things too far. If anyone receives a PM from this user, please send an email to me via the forum system.
Thank you guys.
