Default [Answered] PC Help Forum Bogus Email

I got an email stating it was from here. I logged on and there was no message from this person. I changed my password now. This is the body of the email.

Dear Starwalker,

You have received a new private message at PC Help Forum - Computer Tech Support from GoldieFawn, entitled "Hey there.".

To read the original version, respond to, or delete this message, you must log in here:
http://www.pchelpforum.com/private.php

This is the message that was sent:
Sorry to msg you out of the blue. Here's the thing.

I wrote a book together with a friend. My boyfriend keeps saying it's no good. I think he's just jealous tho. He's a big time poster here, so I told him I'm going to pick a random person here, and ask them, and we ended up betting on it.

So go to http://books.zenofeller.com/asylum/asylum_chapter1.html and call it either way. Good or no good.

Thanks.
***************

Again, please do not reply to this email. You must go to the following page to reply to this private message:

All the best,
PC Help Forum - Computer Tech Support

Hi Starwalker,

This member was a spammer named Goldiefawn as faraz said above. Sorry it has wasted your time. The link is harmless. This thread explains more:

Your email address, password and any other data is completely safe. The email you received was from our server and not the spammer
