Another scam attempt

[-Cappo-]

This is just a heads-up for everyone, no action needed (or in fact possible, I suspect).

Received an email this morning which purported to come from Pistonheads and looked fairly genuine:



Checked the source address and it did say [e-mail]

However, the message was distinctly fishy:

Hey mate,

Hope you're doing very well.

I've read a few of your posts where you clearly have a lot of knowledge in vulnerabilities of car security devices.

I know that if a thief truly wants your car they will ind a way, and I also know you won't tell me the vulnerabilities.

However, I would greatly appreciate if you could gie me a 2024 updated list of tips/tricks you would use to secure your car today.

Thanks so much

Now

(a) I don't recall posting much about car security (but that could just be my memory failing),
(b) I'm actually not gullible enough to share that info with anyone I don't know, and
(c) the clincher is that Mr Bossdog (B0ss7Dog) doesn't appear in the member directory.

Just thought you all might want to be aware.
