New phishing PM scam here

tristanperry · 07-25-2009, 02:30 PM

Hi all,
I'm posting this here since I think it's the most active board.

Watch out (well, ignore) any and all PMs from:

http://www.namepros.com/members/157236.html

He's sending out phishing PMs (have contacted staff already but worth flagging it up here too)

The PM is a fake iTrader with a fake link:

Details about this transaction can be found on your iTrader page (have edited out the link).

Note: This is an automated message.

Just beware and ignore any PMs from this guy

Yeah, I got hit by it....luckily I found a similar post to this quickly enough when I didn't see the trader rating in my iTrader. Went on a flurry to change passwords on 2 other sites...@#$@#@!!!!!!!!!!

Phisher asked me to marry him when I pointed out his stupidity. He only wants me for my money.
