I have just had a mail from 'dgmaffiliates' asking to join a getresponse mailing list.

Is it really you dgm? I have my doubts as the getresponse footer for the importers I/P is in Singapore.

I've just recieved the email too, and was wondering whether to click the link, glad I checked here first.

I assumed it was genuine because it was sent to an email address I don't make public but is one I use mainly for affiliate network logins - including DGM.

Does this mean a spammer has got hold of the DGM mailing list?

poop - I clicked it :scared

Guess my spam box will need an upgrade as it is going to get mighty full :cry

[Jeff]

I'm hoping this is just a mistake from someone in DGM's Singapore office, sending stuff to the wrong mailing list.

Dear All,

We tracked down the cause of the issue and as Jeff suggested, it was a mistake by the Singapore office of the PLC using our shared email systems. I can promise you that we treat the security of your data as an extremely high priority and we've spent the last day making sure that this can't happen again.

For those of you who clicked the link we've had the Singapore office reverse any effect of the click, so if you find that there are any other unexpected emails please let us know.

We'd like to apologise profusely for any concern or inconvenience this may have caused.

Kind regards

Ben

Thanks for letting us know.

I only started the thread cos I though someone was using your name in 'vain' as it were.

A mistake is a mistake. As long as no-one is trying to tarnish your reputation or pass off as you.
