    There is no solution for that. if we block links on PMS people will complain about it... some people (like me) send links such as funny youtube videos, or item screen shoots on PMS..

    The only thing we, as the community, can do about it is to not fall for it, and EVERY time we see some1 pming us a suspicious link, report him.

    At least they're trying to deal with it. However, they can use a thread to warn people on the forums... But what about people who don't USE the forums?

    As far as simple solutions go...
    Can't you make a chat filter that blocks the site's address as a "bad word", and maybe even mute the scammer and alert mods?

    The thing is the link changes.
    Sites like that are constantly changing the link due to being shut down because what they're doing is illegal.
    You could block it for like, a week.

    Still it makes it more innoying for the scammer and it has a chance to make him automatically lose an account
