SPAM via Message Center

Hi fellow researchers,

yesterday I received this message:
From: greatone
Subject: I am intrested in you
Iam Intrested in you My name is Lucy 24 years girl old and single, I am tall good looking and caring honest girl. i see your profile today at www.zotero.org and became intrested to know you,I hope you will be the true loving, honest and caring one that I have beenlooking 4,Remember that colure,language or distance dos't mather in any relationship, And I have something special to tell you about me, So please contact me directly through my email address at [redacted] so that i can also send my picture directly to you. Kissssss Lucy

It seems that some users use personal zotero-mail to distribute their spam. Is there a policy to get them warned and then removed from zotero or another mechanism to deal with this?

This is the first SPAM message I received here, so I don't know, if this is a big problem yet, but I have to say that I'm surprised that spammers have found this scientific community in beta state so fast.

Cheers,
Jan
