This has been reported in the newbie thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=283953

"novacoin.org" in this PM leads to a scam site, do not click!

They were banned, and I deleted most of these spam PMs.

If you get spam like this:
- If the PM was sent less than an hour ago, report it ASAP! PM reports are (by default) seen by global moderators and admins, who can all ban the person and their IPs.
- If the PM was sent more than ~6 hours ago, the person is probably already banned, so you don't need to report it. If they sent a lot of spam, I might delete all of the spam PMs at some point.

I insta-reported it on sight. Grin
