It might be worthwhile for the administrators to warn everyone about this sort of nonsense.

Got one from Dersterman too. I'd forgotten about this site, actually, only having played once. Embarassed

I also received the same message from Dersterman - my first spam from any online gaming site. This forum was very helpful to check out my suspicions about the message.

Ditto for me from the message from Mr. Taylor. Did my own scan with several spyware and malware programs I already have. Of course found nothing askew. Glad to know the deal is bogus.
