<garth.thomas@microgamingsupport.com> Malicious email?

[Synergistic Explosions]

OK, I got this email from &lt;garth.thomas@microgamingsupport.com&gt;
and it went to junk box. I thought it might be legit so I checked it out and it says the attachments are dangerous and won't let me see them. The email is titled only as ''HELLO".

It is very possible a microgaming support guy could be trying to contact me.

Anyone know if this is legit or some scam email?

I didn't get an email like that, but at first glance, I'd say spam. Microgamingsupport.com isn't a real domain name, so unless Microgaming spoofs email addresses in order to contact its customers...

There was a similar thread in here a couple days ago. Some guy got an email with some suspicious .zip files from a gaming site's "address". It was obviously spam and not really from the site.

I don't remember the site, but it sounds similar.

not good.


edit: i can't spell...

Ok, thanks guys, I'll not wonder if it's legit then.

Since I was expecting a reply from microgaming they hit me at the right time to fool me. Luckily my virus program works well.

I was fooled by a neteller one last year and thought I learned my lesson.

Thanks again.

These are easy to fake. NEVER trust the from sender address.

If you would like, I could sent you an email from microgamingsupport.com. Or from microgaming.com, or from any other domain name.
