SPAM ON MYSWAG?
« on: August 07, 2011, 10:25:43 AM »
G'Day All. I have just found an Email in my inbox this morning, that said I had asked for a new Myswag password and that I should click onto the link offered in that Email. Well I never clicked onto the link of course, and went directly to Myswag, where I found that I had not forgotten my password and the user name was waiting there for me. Please be wary of this email should it arrive in your inbox people.  >:(

Looks like they grabbed your email address from your profile. May pay to hide it and go PM only.

Thanks D4D, I have not looked at my profile for a long time and should have seen that.  :-[

Well the Email only came from one source so I will block that one immediately.

Also a good option of ignoring email links and always going to the forum/web site when prompted to change password.

can never be over cautious in these days of internet fraud

I am getting more and more spam on my forum email account.

We won't email you anything like that.
