Just as the thread title says. I haven't deleted the message in case it's needed. I've already reported the message to the moderators, but here's a screenshot:

We've got a copy of it in your reported post, Marnomancer.

I'm certainly not aware of any incidents, but we'll investigate the matter further. In the meantime I strongly recommend against clicking that link -- It looks rather suspect to me, especially with the Java request as soon as the page loads.
 
Yes, which is why I got Avast! to sandbox it for me. I tried viewing the user profile "Alena whatever-it-is", but it says it's unavailable.
 
Aye. Now that I got a close look at the page's behaviour in sandbox mode, I've concluded this whole scam accusation itself is a scam. Accusing someone of a scam, and when the nervous soul clicks the provided link, it effectively installs some kind of backdoor client in his/her computer.
