Title: Microstock.ru Spam, Scam or real thing?
Post by: reckless on November 24, 2010, 09:08
This morning I found an email in my junk folder written in Russian. Google translated it to " your registration information: (my email address + an old password that I have used in the past)

I don't remember signing up for this site and am surprised to see that old password again as it was pretty long and secure.
Has anyone else had any dealings with this site or received similar emails? It may be possible that I signed up several years ago and don't recall but I don't think so.

No. Change your password if you still use this one somewhere

I think I have tracked this down and the microstock.ru site is just one that came up on top with google search but not the one that actually sent the email. Just too much language barrier.

microstock.ru is indeed a valid russian site - a forum similar to microstockgroup.com
