I have received an email from "Phil Sheard" inviting me to click on a very strange looking link. Has anyone received this? Perhaps Phil might reply on the Forum. I did not click. I immediately deleted the email.

The only email I've had this week from Phil is one saying that updates are now on his web site (there had been a problem updating film lists). The link on that goes straight to the CHC web site.

My email link (which I didn't click) had a reference to something strange which certainly seemed to have no reference to anything Classic Home Cinema. I don't recall the exact words as I deleted it immediately, but there was nothing to indicate, as Brian mentioned, about updates on Phil's website.

I have also received the email as well as multiple versions coming from close friends. As Brian suggested, have your pointer hover over the link to verify its origin. This was also a common practice from Paypal hackers over the last few years (things have been cooling doiwn on this front, though).
