I got this message in my PMs. If anyone else gets it, do not click the link. I've had to clean this virus from many computers at my clients, and it's not very easy to remove.

I received this as well. I realized it was spam immediately and did not click the link.

I'm on another forum that got hit by this phishing attack just earlier today.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the alert. I've deleted the offending account, and made an announcement on the front page to warn other users.

Best regards,
Aaron.

Pity you can't delete the message sent by the user, I've got one sitting in my PM inbox; didn't go near it thankfully

Hi John,

I'll have a ferret through the backend database to see if I reach these PM's. Hopefully I won't delete something important...

Cheerio,
Aaron.
