| 456954 | 2006-05-22 23:24:00 | Hi I was wondering if this a phishing email . -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: Trade Me will never ask you for your password via email -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated email regarding account balance . It has come to our attention that your Trademe billing updates are out of order . If you could please take 1-2 minutes out of your online experience and update your billing records you will not run into any future problems with the online service . However, failure to update your records will result in account termination . Please update your records To update your Trademe records now click here: . trademe . co . nz/Members/Login . aspx" target="_blank">www . trademe . co . nz Happy trading! The Trade Me Team www . trademe . co . nz If you don't wish to receive these emails or prefer plain text email, please update your email options If you click on the Members login link . it takes you to a web site that looks like Trade Me but it doesn't have the Trade me web site name in where you type the web address . and when you login it starts asking you for name address credit card etc . thanks Aaron |

| 456956 | 2006-05-22 23:38:00 | Does it convey a sense of urgency? Yes Does it contain a login link? Yes Those are things to watch out for. And the things you pointed out. I learn my lesson when I stupidly fell for a spam email. No matter how legit the email seems, never follow a link from it. Manually visit your account isntead. |

| 456958 | 2006-05-23 00:23:00 | Just to be sure, why not go to tradeMe (don't click the link in the email! type the address in manually in your browser) and check your account. | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 456959 | 2006-05-23 01:18:00 | TradeMe ask that people forward on any emails that claim to be from TradeMe that are suspected of being phishing attempts. See details here (www.trademe.co.nz). | Jen (38) | ||
