Please be aware:

I have received several spoof'd emails claiming to be from gamehavoc.com in the past week. They all included an attachment and had a message along the lines of "Your account is going to be rejected, please confirm" or something similiar.

Please realize that I never send emails like this and if you get anything like this, delete it. I'm never going to ask for your password, nor am I going to email you to change it. Nor am I going to reject your forum account.

Thanks,
ferret

Yeah, I've been getting the same from my dladventures.com one - it's funny seeing spam coming from support@, info@, webmaster@ etc., when I help maintain the website and know for a fact none of these accounts exist, but are merely trying to trick me into running the attachment to exec their trojan/virus/payload.
