    Hi,
    Yup, this is spam. Could you please report it so that I can find the profile and delete it?
    We try and get as many of these as we can, but sometimes, because of sheer volume, one or two get through.

    Thanks so much for reporting!

    Cheers,
    Troy

    Hey Troy,
    Thanks for the prompt reply on my getting spammed. I searched the knowledge base but I couldn't figure how or to whom I report spam to. I am sure the info was there but in my befuddled Monday morning work brain I couldn't find it. Please let me know how to report this.
    Thanks.... and thanks for helping to make redbubble the best art site on the web, adivawoman
