Sparky mentioned awhile back that you receive this if you are a supporter to this site. 

That is all I know

  I got two of those emails last night and talked with Sparky about it and Tom is correct. Nothing to worry about, and you can ignore it and delete it as you see fit. It concerned me because I have never gotten anything like that before from the site. It was for a message about an item called "Miss Behave" waiting for my approval in the Gallery Section. Sparky said that all supporting members can get these.

I too keep getting these and I just blow them away.  also anything on my scam list is never looked at.  If they could catch these nerds and prove they are doing it they need to be put on a chain gang clearing brush or sewers. S?P

It looked enough like a message I would expect a moderator might receive.
This isn't the first time. But out of curiosity I did visit the site/link, which is for here. However, my site password would not allow access to that part of the site. I'm not surprised as I hold no Moderator nor Admin privileges here.
I do wonder why the message was sent...but not enough to bother our Admin over it. I do feel like I'm missing something as if I should investigate a bit...but no harm, no foul. I'll ignore it for now.

     I also received the above message. I've received the same 'Gallery' messages before and my understanding was that all members get one when someone submits photos to the gallery for approval. So I did open it and was asked for my Stunthangar password on a legitimate looking Stunthangar page. Recognizing my password, it then brought me to a legit looking gallery page asking for approval. The only issue I had with the process was that I couldn't view the 'Miss Behave" photos to approve.

     A very clever scammer????  Or I didn't know how to navigate the page to find the photos.

If you receive a gallery message it's because there is a new gallery photo waiting to be approved. If you are a supporter of this site you WILL be notified of this and YOU can approve it or reject it. If you don't want to view it delete the message or go to the gallery and approve it.

Because someone already approved it. I will look into turning that feature off

Thanks, Admin.

But I really DID want to see the picture. I guess I'll poke around in the gallery...if I have access. I really didn't know we had one. :!
