Title: MtGox Phishing Scam
Post by: Big Time Coin on September 04, 2011, 08:50:42 PM
Not sure where else to post this.  E-mail got through my gmail spam filter, and appeared to be from info@mtgox.com.  Could tell it wasn't legit b/c when clicked on mtgox.com link, got sent instead to: http://www.mtgvx.tk/users/blocked (http://www.mtgvx.tk/users/blocked).  But I did think it was real for a minute because I did post some criticism of Tux here earlier in the day.

HAH! Good Idea!  And you could use the official leaked mtgox user list to get the usernames so they think it is for reals.
