    Yes, I believe it's a spam. Due to the fact that some of my friends and I got the same thing.

    guess we will have to just wait and see what they have to say and if there is anything we can do


    right now I am showing I have 2 guests in my group. I have my group closed so hoping they can't get in. afraid of being hacked.

    They can hack forumotion. But nothing will be harmed. Since forumotion can simply backup your forum and change your password. So don't worry about that. Wink

    Hi,

    Yes it is spam, there's nothing that can be done, since it came through the contact form, except for disabling the contact form.

    You have nothing to worry about since it is just a message. Simply ignore it and move on.


    Chivas, how you could involve the potential of hacking from a simple message like this, puzzles me scratch
