Scam email

jinnty

Hello, I just reviewed an email in my junk folder, pertaining to Scope, and to click on a. Hollywood Drug Store, for immediate dispatch of any drugs wanted. The drugs advertised were as far as I remember, opioids, and various other forms of drugs. I have deleted it without writing down the address it came from. But it did say Scope, so please be aware of these types of emails. Stay safe please and remember do not click on any links. Take care and stay safe everyone.

Hi @jinnty As you have notifications turned on for discussions that are posted into the chronic pain and pain management category, I believe this may have been a notification email from a post that was made earlier today. The post in question has since been removed.

Stay safe please and remember do not click on any links.

Good message! It's definitely important to remain vigilant, and not to click any links that you're unsure about.

I’m getting lots of scam emails lately. One especially annoying one is an email telling me to pay bitcoin over or have my computer closed down. 

Again, do not click on any links!

@leeCal I get the bitcoin ones to, as well as ones offering me penis extensions - I'm female! Lol.

@Tori_Scope
so sorry about that. I didn’t realise, so I fully apologise for my mistake.

No need to apologise @jinnty I was obviously concerned when I saw your discussion, and realised that it was probably a notification for that post. I imagine others also got the notification, so it was worth a word of warning! And it's provided a good opportunity for us all to remember to be vigilant in keeping ourselves safe online.
