    Ah I just fell for this PM I got here on DP:

    The link is cloaked to a copy of DP where you put in your login details!!!!

    I've changed my password already so hopefully I'm safe - make sure a warning goes out!!

    :mad:

    Hi,
    I got a Spam from 18SanFrancisco:

    But guess what?
    The link directed me to http://forums-digitalpoint.net/login.html = Do not enter your details!

    It will gather user name and passwords, pretty smart but nasty.

    conclusion:
    Hi should get ban.
    Even if he been hacked and some one else using his account.
    This is going to be hard work for MOD's :(

    Hi,
    That probably can happen, he still need to ban the account so it won't feed him self and gather more accounts.

    Even if the users didn't did any thing bad, he fall into a scam, nothing we can do about.

    If anyone bit on the phishers line, immediately change your DP password. If you use the same password and userid elsewhere, immediately change your password there as well.
