    I've received a message from Forumotion, is it true ? 09615175912Beware of fake emails :
    If you receive an email like this:
    Dear Founder,
    My name is ----, Forumotion Adminstrator.
    A hacker is causing us problems lately, and is threatening to attack your forum.
    So we can protect you as best as we can, I will need admin rights on your forum, so I can patch it and avoid you being hacked.
    Please give me your login as soon as possible, so I can protect you from his hacking attempts.

    Please also see an example link of how he proceeds : http://www.----.com

    We count on your fast collaboration, this is a serious threat.

    Best regards,
    Forumotion Administrator.

    How to react :


      - Do not answer nor click on any link !- Copy / paste the mail and send it to a staff member of this forum if you want to be sure it's a fake.NOBODY will ever ask you your password within the staff of Forumotion. We do not need this information to ensure the security of your forum!


       I've received a message from Forumotion, is it true ? 09615172706OK for mails, but I've got a PM from Forumotion ... ? ?
    Same principle. If a member registers on your forum to send you a PM claiming to be Forumotion:


      - Do not answer nor click any link !- Save the mail account he used, - Copy / paste the PM and send it to a staff member of this forum if you want to be sure it's a fake.


    If you have received this via the Contact option  (reference [Contact] appears in the title)


      - Do not answer nor click on any link !- Save the mail account he used, - Copy / paste the message and send it to a staff member of this forum if you want to be sure it's a fake.


    Obviously, Forumotion never uses private messages to contact a forum administrator. Wink

    When Will Forumotion ever Email me?
    Forumotion Will only ever Email you if you have asked for a password reset or Email address change
    We will never ask you to give us any passwords for this matter we will just send you a new one by Email
    and our Emails will not have any links for you to press.
