    Is that the actual direction link or is it edited to look like the actual Sythe login url. Looks legit to me.

    Warning: Possibly New Phishing Attempt

    This isn't a phishing attempt, this is just someone attempting to log in with your sythe account and clicking "forgot password".
    Then they send reset password instructions to your email (which I assume is the one registered with sythe)...
    Nothing to worry about.. I don't think :p

    Did you even mouse over the links? Pretty sure this is legit, just as the above posters said. Looks like someone's trying to hack you though RsProd.

    ^ I hope not. I talked to Nick, and he told me to post this, just to let the sythe users know what's out there.

    It looks pretty legit, someone must have tried to get your account.

    Failed of course.

    I always check the message source to see the headers and what server did the mail come from.

    What is your email address?
    I'll send you an email from [email protected]
    Or [email protected]

    Email's can be faked.


    However, this just looks like someone tried to recover your password.
    As it doesn't tell you to "Click here to cancel this"

    I can't really check my email, because hush has this stupid system that if you don't login to your email for 3 weeks they will make you have to pay for the email feature. Meaning I can only use it for msn messaging, instead of also email.

    But, regards to people getting accounts, it's mainly people adding and asking if I would sell it.

    Just remember if you suspect it may be a phishish link don't click it. And always check the url that the website will send you to. Thid is the most crucial part.
