I am getting unusual emails i.e. Hello, Fog. A new message has been posted to the 'Crypto trading from NZ' topic. Click the link below to read it:

Hello, Fog. A new message has been posted to the 'Read small Data Matrix ECC200 codes specifically on Apple parts' topic. Click the link below to read it:

Probably a simple explanation but have never had these in the past and I haven't changed anything. Can someone help please.

Are you involved with cryptocurrency trading? If not, they are certainly a scam. Most the conversation will soon turn towards either you sending money to someone, or you giving them your credit card details, or you giving them a username and password, or you giving them some personal information like your mother's maiden name or your drivers license number. Do not respond... just delete them.

If you are involved in cybercurrency trading, they are almost certainly a scam.

They're Geekzone topics in the Off topic forum. Sounds like you've got an auto watch set on the Off Topic forum here: https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=48

Hit "Stop Auto Watch" and you should be golden. Also note on every email there is an unsubscribe link.
