Apologies for this...wasnt sure where to post...but over the last year or so Ive been sent one or two emails by mistake from Farsight. Today, i have received another...seems i have been sent details of a conversations, and details of somebodys account...and password! Im not sure if this is a scam email or wether its yet another email been sent by mistake. Its obviously a concern...

Just wondering if anyone else has been sent these as this may help me determine wether or not this is a genuine mistake from FS or a scam email to try and get me to reply etc. I didn't want to click reply and find out I shouldn't have...alternatively, in the past, if i email FS, i don't usually get a response...so thought here may be quicker.

Cheers.

Forward it back to support@pinballarcade.com, and delete it?

If it looks suspicious, treat it like it is.

Thats what id like to do...only someone told me not to reply or forward emails just in case that triggers some kind of virus download or something. My other concern is, if i have somebodys info and its a genuine email...then maybe someone has all my details by mistake too! This has happened before too. :(

While I've never received anything like this from FarSight, like everyone else, my junk e-mail inbox is loaded with crap like this.
Seriously, there are old video games which use better "engrish" than some of these messages.

How many mail-order brides and price-club supplies of cialis can one possibly need? Stupid question, I know....

If you can give them the e-mail headers and content that'd be best because that will be the most telling to their IT infrastructure folks!!

If you were in Outlook I'd say save it as a .msg file and attach because that would include headers. Not sure about all the free providers' websites we use personally, they're probably all a little different.
