Topic starter  

I received a spoof email pretending that an automatic order has been placed by aneros.com via PayPal

Once again it looks like if the Aneros mailing list was compromised

Same here!

Have notified both Paypal and the Aneros shop.

Has the Aneros site been hacked again?

Got one as well. Debated going to the links to cancel and decided that was probably what the sender wanted. So I did not.

It's possible they harvested email addresses the last time the site was compromised.

I became a member after the "last time the site was compromised" (I've seen references to that in some posts), so if I get one of these in my Inbox I'll let everyone know. But I haven't received anything as yet.

I registered after the attack and I have not received any emails so I think it must be old data they stole.Lets hope so.

Got an email from Aneros today (yesterday?) alerting us to the fact that it was a phishing email.

And no, according to them, the site has not been hacked, and they're actively working with IT experts and the legal department to track it down.

So, according to them, no worries (we hope)

I haven't received anything. Should I be worried/envious that I'm being excluded?
