I am shocked that this type of spam can be here on Crosswalk.............
Is there anything that can be done by the mods to prevent this type of trash?

No, nothing can be done to prevent it. We don't know who the spammers are going to be until they start sending out such PM's and the recipients tell us about it.
To report this person, please go to any forums post (that isn't your own - doesn't matter whose) and click the Report link. Copy the web address of the PM, the URL you have while reading the PM. Also copy the sender's name/nickname and as much of the PM as you can fit into the report. Once you've submitted the report, the mods will handle it from there.
Sorry this happened to you.

You can prevent that type of spam by not enabling pm's. If no one can send you a pm, you will never get spam.
