No, it’s exactely the same sender address and format. I can sent you the notification mail and you can take a look at it yourself. Where do i sent it to?

@paalke Phishing e-mail messages are designed to make the recipient think that the message is true.

Anyway, what kind of notification was it? Post a screen shot if possible, together with the link.

Here is a screenshot of the mail. Clicking on @paalke leads to the porn site. It does that in this mail only and not in other received notificationss as far as i know. But I haven’t (yet) tried them all.

@paalke I've just take a look at the post and it was a case of clever spam. The post was deleted.

OK, Tkx, glad this has been solved!

I presume you have checked wether this has happened on more places or occasions and taken measures that it can’t happen again?

@paalke Only thing we can do is remove/block the post of you notice it or if someone reports it.
