Does Promoted Gigs send inbox messages to buyers?

Does Fiverr do direct inbox promotion when you use Promoted Gigs? 

I turned mine on because November sales have been dead in the water. And got this delightful individual I've never talked or worked with before in my inbox this morning, right before coffee. Schooling me and prompting me to go tell the tsar that the boyars are bad. 

I can't see what "this message" is but depending on how it's worded, it can be a little... errrr... counterproductive? 

 

PS Wouldn't it say "Promoted" in green next to the user's name if our interaction was a result of promotion?
