IMPORTANT- COMPUTER SAFETY- PLEASE READ

Post by geots »

Mods, please leave this thread so people can read it- at least for 24 hours. Anyone who receives an email from me with a link about a new career- DO NOT open it. I did not send it! I have no idea who did- but a lot of people are getting it- supposedly from me. I would advise to run some scans if you were a receiver of it.

I first received it from someone I am no longer on speaking terms with. I immediately deleted it. I am not quite sure what is going on. Matthew Brades was the only one to catch on to what it was and alerted me- by then I was aware.



Thanks,

george

Yes I got it as well, but it does not appear to be malicious at first glance

Thing is, I am guessing if you opened it, everyone in your contact list will be receiving it from you.
