It means 'Private Message' - like an email system built into the forum. Often when people are buying items, or providing private info like addresses - they will use this.

If you click on the persons name you can choose the option.

I thought they could on request, like if someone mugs someone else off they can access details to foward to the authoritys?

[Bungle]

they can only tell who sent a message and to who not what was said

if someone mugs someone else off they can ask for a copy of the PM
