Re: Recent PM from "ForumModerators"
I hope that the other folks in the TO field are aware of the risk before they click.

there was also a read-receipt on the message, so it might be traceable if it's malicious

Re: Recent PM from "ForumModerators"
It's pretty obviously not legitimate. VBulletin moderators don't need to make duplicate accounts to PM people, and they have no way of knowing if you have a virus.

Quote:

Read receipts are tied to the user that sent them, so all that would tell the mods is that user ForumModerators didn't uncheck the little box that said to say if the message was received. Don't worry, they can check the IP of the user, though that won't do much good.

...I know too much about VB. I should take a break from the Internet.

Re: Recent PM from "ForumModerators"
Got one as well. To be honest I'm suprised that the admins didn't just forbid useage of "moderator"/"Admin" in usernames through the adminCP.
