Hi Mags.
I'm sure it is all "computer generated" and if any of the links were followed then the persons computer would be greatly compromised.
The address offered contains "goo.gl" which is a URL reducer that google supply. It will redirect to some unknown address.
This "program" that is generating the threads has affected many sites, not just this one.
I copied one of the thread titles and googled it. The same thread appeared on many forums and blog sites.
I'm sure the "team" will take action as soon as possible.
