email from the forum

I haven't checked the link, but I'm assuming its a scam. Figured I'd throw a heads up to you all here. When I logged onto the forums, there was no private message, so take that to mean what you will. If you really want to see the link, fix the http, I changed it so its not a direct link.

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL!

*edit* my bad, just realized this was from the other 4 runner board i never go to.

I'll go ahead and break all the links, but the one of concern was broken when I posted.

I guess I'll leave the whole post up, so ppl can be reminded not to just click on any link they see in email...though by now it should be common knowledge.

How about somebody un-parse those links so some poor schlub doesn't get his machine toasted?

I got one of those a while back and just deleted it.
