I've just recently joined this forum and I got an email from a forum member. his name is frank kufo and his forum name is frank01.
basically it's a send me your bank details for 15% of some money. I didn't read it all and blocked his email address.
so if anyone gets an email from him delete it.
cheers

    I got the same thing a few weeks ago. If anyone else gets it, delete it immediately, probably has virus attached. It wasn't picked up by my antivirus, and went right into reg. email. I never opened it, but was curious what the message was. Thanks, offthebackadam.
