Today I received an email that was supposedly from BitcoinTalk support. The email had a link where the text looks like a BitcoinTalk url but when you click on it it takes you to a different website which looks exactly like BitcoinTalk but the url in the address bar is different.

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

You can save all the issue if you will not follow any link about Bitcointalk supposed email, you will eventually read the email once you login, and of course always on alert on the url or domain that you are visiting will be a great help, these kinds of email usually land in the spam folders so ignore these emails.
