phishing email

[cajunron]

Hello members. I received an email today saying I had a private message on my TRF account. After returning from work tonight, I looked for info on this supposed member but could find no person with that username. I have modified the links so that they do not work. The email (IM) read:



"Dear cajunron,

Please be careful, and NEVER click on any link sent to you via email or instant message. It is a ploy to gain access to your account passwords and info. These scumbags will keep trying until they find someone who lets their guard down. Don't make it easy for them.

I had this too, from the same user, and reported it last night.
