Bloodypayne has sent me PM's in an attempt to trick me into thinking I was "Banned form BYOND"
In my pager, right as he paged me, the supposed Admin pages came right as he paged me with a "normal" page.
The thing is, the time-stamp next to the pages are normally grey when someone pages you, the ones next to the "Administrator" pages are black on my pager.
I'm sure he's tried this with other users too, maybe some that can't tell it's fake.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I don't use the BYOND forums often.

Yeah, I got something like that, but from somebody with the key "BYOND Elite". I'm not sure if I should be posting here, since I've got no clue, but I'm definitely confused on what's going on...

It's fake.
The fact the page suggests that BYOND would infect you with a virus by simply attempting to log in while banned is laughably stupid. |
There was in fact just a post about it in the BYOND Discussion section, by some Cassidyx15 or something. He thought it was real. The posts were deleted by some BYOND staff, I guess.
Just let it be known, BYOND staff will probably never contact you via the pager under a "BYOND[insert something]" key. |
