    I've just received this PM from DP member saurabh kumar

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=132815
    However, the link does not go to http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=606921

    It goes to http://digital-point.freeweb7.com/digital-point/index.html, a fake clone of DP where he will try to get your DP username and password.

    they will give that person what they deserve.

    I got the same one. Why steal digital point accounts though?

    Thanks for warning us, I never click on links from unsolicited PM's especially from new members with 0 or 1 posts.

    You should just forward the spam message to a mod and they'll take care of it. There's no need to start a thread about it. :)

    It has been forwarded to a mod, however this is a warning for members that who have already been PM'd or to members that are PM'd before the member is banned.
