FStoppers DM - spam??????
I have received the message below from ’fstoppers’.
Given the urgency of the required action and threat of account suspension this has all the fingerprints of spam. As such I am not following the provided link and have reported it to admins.
I’m forwarding this just to alert others (I spent 20 years in IT dealing with such attacks), and perhaps confirm either way.
My feeling is that if this were valid there would be a banner on the home page.
Just a heads up, respond if/as you see fit.

Thanks for the heads up...

I spent most of my working career installing telephony and data networks. After I retires I obtained a degree in Network Administration and another in Cybersecurity. The knowledge I received after retirement confirmed what I obtained in my work career... and I have to remember that not everyone has the same level of understanding.
Thank you for your advisement. 👍
