Is new poster Global02 a spammer or malware sponsor?

Moderators - have seen a few responses from this new poster over the last 24 hours that look funny. If we click on some of his links, are we going to get malware?

He may be legitimate but looks funny.

I looked at the user profile this morning. As of then there were only two posts by this user, and both were one or two word replies only. Malware invitation, or just fishing for clicks.

Better not clicking on those. I once clicked on something like that and it could not get rid of the virus for a long time. It was some stupid link that was sharing porn on my Facebook wall. Honestly it was really hard getting rid of that stuff and I was so annoyed because everyone could see it. I had to deactivate my account for a while because it was to much. My brother is better than me with technology and he told me to go on https://thinkmobiles.com/blog/best-pc-optimization-software and downlad the optimizing tool that I can afford. I did not know how it could help, but it really did and those viruses were gone from my PC. Now it keeps my PC clean and I have no problems like that anymore.
