    Blue Devil Media - ivnj is a phished account. The ban may not be permanent.

    I am sure the phished member's appreciate you doing this. :D

    It is very nice of you to take your time and sort out this frustrating mess.

    There certainly does and I'm not sure if vB plans to introduce one. A problem for the mods is that we can't see your private messages and even if you forward one to us we can't verify that's actually what the person said, or if they said it at all. You could, infact, be the malicious one.

    We, therefore, rely on your honesty when you send them in. Believe me, we do appreciate that it's not simple but to keep this community intact we need and rely on your help!

    We also understand this sarah. That person also sent me PM but when i point my mouse over link he sent through PM then i found that link redirect to forums-digitalpoint.com instead of our forums.digitalpoint.com so immediately i have forwarded it to smyrl and he got banned immediately.

    DON.

    I figure this guy is peeved that we stopped the money / vcc thing but it's just the same as all the other phishing attacks, before you login to any website glance at the address bar to make sure you are where you think you are.

    Once he stops getting any "wins" he'll move on and get a life.

    I think the original account has been phished and the phisher's using it to acquire even more accounts.

    Please ban dadsworld. I can forward the PM to one of the mods if necessary.

    Edit: Recipients: ::TECHMAN::, ak9597, kloop, ljastangs21, oldcrowe - I've sent a warning to all recipients. Still, please be careful.

    Just got this, the site linked in the pm sent is to a phishing site, DO NOT enter your details!

    That is what the message looks like, when you click on the actual link in the PM it takes you to

    http://forums-digitalpoint.com/

    I got the same pm but from another member who's banned now.. seems like they created multiple usernames or are already sending them out from phished accounts..
