MuskyOnTheFly 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I got the same thing. Looks like it's probably a virus. I wouldn't suggest clicking on the link. -Vandy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MuskyOnTheFly 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I clicked on it and it takes you to what looks like an illegal download site. Not a virus, but you never know what you'll pick up at those sites. -Vandy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex C. 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I'm no copmputer whiz but how would someone do something like that? Wouldn't they have to go to the members list and individually email, each one? Sounds like a lot of work to get someone to go to your website Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again no one click the link and you dont have to worry about any prob's on your computer it was just a spam message nothing else. Will will let everyone know what happened when he gets it sorted out.

hook-line&sinker 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2005 It looks like the FTF email server was harvested by [email protected] This person is listed as the admin for blackv1sa.1nfo located in Hanoi Veitnam. It's what looks like a new forum but all the posts are from either root or admin. I use a Apple Mac so it is much harder to violate it then the windows PC.. everything targets MS Windows... Because it's a Mac I can do things that would otherwise be too risky. Be safe and delete the email! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FL_SKIBUM 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 I don't post a lot but do lurk from time to time. I got that spam as well. Thanks for the quick reply to my e-mail. I really didn't want to block this site from being able to send me e-mails. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZCicada 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 I got it too and had a look. Just another forum by the looks, nothing sinister, except the spamming part, from what I could tell anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
