Can the bot monitor direct messages? #10

Is it possible for the bot to monitor private messages? Sometimes scammers to direct messaging.

Apparently the new slack API will allow this, but it's not possible right now, unless you pay 15$/user/year. If you have moderators that are not admin they should receive scammers messages as well and could report them with the $flag command.

Once slack updates their API I'll try to add DM monitoring.

In our case a lot of the scams come as DM to our users, so would love to see how we can support this feature. @PhABC if you happen to know whether the new slack API is up, I'm more than happy to go fishing to see if I can implement the feature.
