Warning: Warrior Forum Spoof Email

Hey mates,

I got this in the email today form warriorforum

Note: I made the link below unclickable.

And Dave, if you are a Warrior Forum Member, tactics like this just demonstrate you aren't a True Warrior.

And your ad copy sucks.

Spyware?? I hope you haven't clicked the link

I got it to and reported it to the help desk with the headers in case they're interested.

Dude - take the links out of your post - why give them a backlink?

I was thinking the same as Katya...it may contain some spyware or something like that

I hate stuff like this especially when it has to do with this great forum>

That is not the only email address they are using, either. I've received a couple that mention the WF and even addressed me as "Dear fellow Warrior". Same link in the email, though.

I just deleted them - it didn't even occur to me to forward them or copy them to the help desk but I'll do that if I get another one.
