Hi guys,
I was just contacted by another member who says he's received an email saying I sent him a private message here on the forum. Needless to say, I haven't sent anyone here a private message in a very long time.
Remember, if you receive a private message from a moderator, especially if it contains a link, check with that person first. NEVER click on a link until you verify that one of us sent it.
Our general rule of thumb is that none of the mods will ever send you a link unless you have specifically asked us to.
Take care and play it safe,
Kim

Good advice, Kim.
I received an email telling me to log in to see a new message in my inbox - it looked exactly like the email I would normally receive is this were the case.
Fortunately, I didn't click the link because I was (naturally) already on the forum, and could see there were none.
Be warned! Don't click links in emails that claim to be coming from the forum!

That's right Ian, they all come from Kim's address (but that's because of a setting in the forum which we should change... ahem)
However, I received one on 31 July but there was no new PM - can people delete PMs they created? Maybe that's what happened, because it does look legitimate.

Do you know how to change that setting? I'm not sure I know how.dissolute wrote:That's right Ian, they all come from Kim's address (but that's because of a setting in the forum which we should change... ahem)

Every parent has a favorite child. Usually the child belongs to the neighbors.
