Salaam,
If you get a PM from someone called Kaneweber, don't open it. It's spam, and clicking on the link in the signature could get you a virus on your PC.
Found this on a forum when googling his/her username:
I recently received a PM from some dude named "kaneweber" wishing me a greeting or something. While it wasn't offensive or anything like that, it just didn't sit right. I thought it was weird that he'd include a link in his PM signature but have never posted. So I went ahead and googled that dude's username. Yeah...

The thing is, all of the forums have him as not actually posting. So, after more searching, there's apparently some sort of thing where he starts spamming and all that through PMs.
I'm not 100% of all this, but I just thought I'd bring it up. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who received the PM... unless...maybe....just maybe he does really just want to be my friend!
