Emails in Messages and scammers.

Can I just remind people that a favourite trick of spammers and scammers is to send their email address in messages sent through the system. They wish to extract you as quickly as possible from the system and open up a conversation with you directly. Generally these conversations will lead to a request for money - disguised as an aged sick mother, daughter needing education, money for an airfair to come and see you etc. Do not reply to emails sent through messages directly until you know the person isn't a scammer.
