A new user is registered under the name "coinflipz" who is sending out phishing PMs.  They send what looks like a link to a bitcointalk thread, but the actual link is different from the text, linking instead to http://bitcointlak.my-board.org (actual link is a bit longer leading to a clone of the Bitcointalk.org login page).

The PM I got was targeted to me as a pool owner.  I'm not sure how many others are getting something similar.

A lot of mods (if not all) have also been targets of these PMs, seems like their trying to grab important accounts.
