On checking my private messages there aren't any, and this person does not exist. Unfortunately I did click on a link any advise?

If it helps, the first link is the same as if you hover over the link to your PMs, and the second is not a real link as it has been purged, but I'm not sure about the one in brackets.

They've probably been doing the rounds in the early hours, so my guess is that they have been banned, which is why you can't see the PM in your inbox and can't find them as a member.

I clicked on the 1st link so I hope everything is ok.

Yup, that's just the same link that you use to access your private messages, so don't worry.
