Tamar,

Yeah thanks, got that one too - luckily with all the BS that has been going on I suspected it was a hoax.

Cheers

Hi Steve,

I'm pretty sure it's BS, so I wouldn't click it if I was you.

This is BS bigtime,
I have sent out warning e-mail to all members.
We have taken extra safety measurements so that it will not happen again.
And we will update the forumsoftware tonight GMT.

I`m very sorry.

Another virus hoax message today.

I hope that this can be addressed for the sake of the less computer aware among us.

I got the same PM

AND
This is NOT thrue!! DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK its a hoax and can also be a virus and you do not want to get a virus on your PC

As an general rule, do not follow links at all when you get a PM from people you are not sure who is. And do not resend it to others either, that's what the hoax makers are hoping for.
