STRANGE PM !!!!!!!!
 

Has anyone else recieved a PM from this man about taking measures immediately? I have not opened it

Me too! Looked so official I did open it and it went to some kind of you need help with you anti virus mode. I don't know what is next.

It would appear to be spam that provides a link to may or may not be malicious software. I believe it is best to not open it and DO NOT click on the link provided. John Dunkle will be along shortly once he see this and will clear all the PM's opened or not from everyones mailbox.

Me too, so I forwarded the e-mail notification to John.

Just got it and deleted same. Had this happen a few months ago. Sure looks official, but I don't take chances these days, I fried a computer about six years ago opening and email from a friend that he actually hadn't sent me. I should have none, as the topic was something he would never have been part of.

In got it as well, and it showed up on my pm messages here.

I deleted it!

This site is a target for the anti-virus software scam. If I don't know the sender AND the subject isn't relevent to me, I DELETE!!!

Do not open this repair file!...it is a virus.....thanks Kenny

Got it also

Malware scam
 

DELETE IT!!

Worse part it would appear that sombody has done a good job at lifting or hacking the email address off this site.

It contains a Malware infection desigined as a rootkit and takes over your computer in a plishing attempt to get you to purchase their fake app.

I also got the same weird message via e-mail. How did these people get our e-mail address, what other data have they mined from this site? If it's not the gum-it, it's the hackers.

I recieved it also, opened it, and my virus protection told me it was a fake site.
Subsequently, I did not proceed.

I received it this morning. I opened it but did not click on anything, i hope no damage was done. Quickley deleted it.

I had to look ...bad stuff. Did a restore and sent it packing

Hi folks,

OK - I just reprogrammed the usergroups on this site.. From now on -

EVERY NEW REGISTERED USER will have to make one post BEFORE they can use the Private Message Feature....

That means - if you haven't posted on the forum yet, please do so - and your PM feature will be automatically updated within one hour of that first post... You might try the:

New User Introductions Forum for your first post.. ;)

Best to all!

John

Thanks John :clap: You da MAN!!

Here we go again....

Bingo. :(

and....
I'm guessing you guys don't bother reading the entire thread before you reply, eh?

Have a wonderful evening.

John

What ever you do. DO NOT OPEN THAT LINK!!!!!

I opened it by mistake and it took over my computer. It took me three hours to get rid of it. It's a nasty one.

I openned it on my smartphone Droid. I think it just stopped because my Droid has a unique op system. I think I lucked out.

...sigh... :rolleyes:

I have no comment...

Best to ya' Dean!
