Re: I just got a really weird PM

Normally I wouldn't share something I've received by PM, but this feels dodgy and I have no idea who this person is:

Hello PowerGlove,

I've replied to you
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5406168.0

This person didn't participate in that thread and the "link" is some kind of messed up BBCode (which I sanitized before quoting above):

Code:
[flash=200,200]https://[/flash][url=https://bitcointalk.login-index.php-topic.794551.0.thegermanaccess.com/?u=PowerGlove&l=5406168.0]bitcointalk.oгg/index.php?topic=5406168.0[/url]

Anybody know anything? Huh

Edit: Here's an image of the message for anyone still interested:



Notice how the link is blue when it should be green. Also, notice the weird underlining that stops short of extending all the way to the left.

I've condensed what I learned from other members into a simple guide: Don't get your Bitcointalk account "phished" (Desktop/Laptop). Thanks everybody!

my alt got that and the person sending the message is tagged for fishing passwords.
