Getting paypal phlishing sites emailed to me :(

Dreads · 04-12-2008, 05:39 AM

I just want to warn some people that may of placed their emails inside this forum. I believe there might of been a bot that got our emails or something, the main point is I been getting a lot of fake paypal emails.

The major site i remember that they had a link to was
paypal.ulmb.com (I think the site is removed)

The big thing of it all is.. the email account that the email came in from has no paypal set up lol..

Unless you physically posted your email address in a thread bots would not get them from Namepros as the email user links go to a form first so bots and spammers don't know your email address.

It is most likely they are trying random emails.

If you haven't posted your email on the site, I agree with Peter, it's not possible to get the email addresses from NamePros.

Much more likely they just whoised your domain, your email is right there for all to see spam.
