The user oletiteb was banned a few days ago.
Banned for PM scam or some other reason.
Yes, he was banned specifically for sending out unsolicited PMs.
Kudos to the forum moderators, they are working behind the scenes beyond what we know, or can ever appreciate.
It gladdens me that the user was even banned days before the OP reported it, according to your initial
post. Still, everyone should be careful of all unsolicited messages, especially those that are "too good to be true."
The moderators didn't do it alone. Oletiteb must have sent the unsolicited message to many forum users who inturn reported his account, which is why he was banned. Assuming no one reported, no action would have been taken as moderators don't know when unsolicited messages are sent through pm.
