Just received an email saying:
PistonHeads: Re-Authorize Your Account
Dear Customer,
Thank you for joining the PistonHeads community! We're delighted to have you onboard. To finalize your registration and ensure a seamless experience, please click the link below:
https://www.pistonheads.com/emails/process?token=f...
By clicking on the link, you will not only confirm your account but also securely register your preferred payment method. This step is essential for accessing all the features and benefits available to our valued customers.
If you hover the link that appears to be from PH it is actually newsletter-pistonheads.com which was registered yesterday.
To be honest its fairly convincing, just the lack of any name; the wrong domain (on looking); and obviously the guff about payment method. Plus of course I actually registered some time ago so ...
Anyway thought it was worth highlighting.

Joking aside it's a bit disconcerting how a scammer can connect a PH member with their email address. Unless the scammer is a member and sent him an email via PH and he responded to it?
I don't think they do actually connect them as I have had the same email to two different email addresses, only one of which is associated with PH.Joking aside it's a bit disconcerting how a scammer can connect a PH member with their email address.

Suspect its just scattergun or very very clever indeed ...
