Hubert Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Yes the message was sent to me too. But I didn't open it because nobody sends me important or "real" messages these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snakeystew Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Unfortunately, due to being half asleep, I also clicked it. I feel stupid right now - *bangs head on desk*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 All of this user's harmful PM's have been removed from our system. In the future, do not click suspicious links, especially those with ".ru" extensions. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimii Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Isn't .ru just a domain extension for Russian users? Not all of them are bad sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 No, not all Russian sites are bad. There are many good Russian sites. But Russia is known for producing a higher-than-average number of spammers and hackers. That's what happens when there's so many educated and unemployed people living in one place.

Ian Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Yup. I know that all Russian sites aren't evil, but whenever I've received anything from any of them, it's always been spam or hackers. So, as a result, .ru sites are instantly suspicious to me. b) This topic has been edited by a member of staff (Superfly). The original topic had been answered.
