Hi all,

I just got the following PM from a user called BuyAllBTC4

Quote
Hello,
This message is to advertise the Btc-e Trading Bot, unlike other trading bots it is fully compatible with btc-e API keys and offers an easy to use auto trade feature that will give you a upperhand against any trader without it. The bot has received fantastic reviews for its ability and price.

A week long trial version is offered on the main site, I also offer a weekly payment for adding the btc-e trade bot signature, visit the sales thread for more information. To purchase, or visit sales thread go to btcetradingbot.com

Thanks

Anyone know if this is legit or it is just spam that I should get used to seeing in my mailbox?

Regards,

V

Thanks for the replies guys, I didn't even notice that it linked to a spoof bitcointalk.org address!
I've reported the user too.

There has been quite a few scams running around, another huge one was the Novacoin giveaway.

Always ask the bitcointalk community before taking any risk and clicking an unknown or unsafe link.

Cheers!
