    Goodness knows which forum would be appropriate for this one!!

    I have received an email claiming to be from the Melbourne Somersoft Group, urging me to download an invoice commencing "Get Transaction Document".

    The email address is the same as the usual Melbourne East Side meetup reminders come from, but as mailchimp has previously compromised I thought I'd best check...is the Melbourne Somersoft Group sending invoices??

    I know I haven't been to a meetup in ages, so maybe its a fine :eek:

    Cheers,
    Scott

    I received the same email. I'm fairly certain it's malware, so it's deleted.

    @Ghoti - don't worry about it, I'll put it on one of the credit cards that I found on the net ;)

    Would it be a lengthy procedure to get a refund?
