    I didn't want to do that, Since i don't know if i'd get mistaken as a sender because it seems they could be using accounts that went to that site;

    Ok i should mention the link shown in my initial post was just used by the scammers to spoof the actual phishing site .

    The account is either hacked, or this person is doing this. Anyway, blogmaster's good name is being abused to send this out.

    Its a phishing scam, most certainly! Got the same PM.

    I actually feel left out. Hopefully the IP of the offender has been blocked also as they will no doubt have already accumulated a vast amount of usernames and passwords which they can use for further promoting their page.
