Exclamation Beware of scammers!

Hi Everyone,

We have been informed about some scammers trying to get your personal details by saying they are from X-Cart.

Namely, someone is sending messages like this one:
Quote:
-------------------------

*From:* X-Cart [mailto:support@x-cart-noreply.com]
*Sent:* Wednesday, September 08, 2010 6:05 PM
*To:* some@emailaddress.com
*Subject:* We have detected multiple login attempts!

Please pay attention that we do not have domain name x-cart-noreply.com

Also, there is no such domain at all.

Quote:
[ambal@kde194-green][~]$ host x-cart-noreply.com
Host x-cart-noreply.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Someone is trying to get you to click the link and get to a page that looks like HelpDesk login page. It may contain malicious code as well.

Please be aware of this threat!
