Thank you.

Well were you supposed to receive any big funds from anyone ? If that's the case then go ahead, if not then definitely it's a phishing link. I think you should confirm with the customer care of LR.

This is a phising mail. Wonderful is not the only one who got this mail. There are many other people who got this mail.

So just delete the mail. There is no one on the internet who will give that much money for free.lol

ofcourse it not from LR. LR or other payment processors will never call you dear member/user. just delete those kind of email and never click any link attached. if you have interests you may login to your account to check directly.

I also do get such e mails and how nice it would be if it is true..! sadly these things are untrue and you should never click on any links you get in e mails

I had never let other LR member send such a large amont of money to me, so I thought it was a bonus from LR, but it is too much. Thanks for clear it.

Well i also recieved this in my gmail inbox , quite interesting that they will always come with new ideas in the email , though of course i deleted it without thinking over it.

You have a point there. They never mention you as user or member. They always refer to your name or your account number.

There is a difference in what the email shown to you and what you are actually directed to. The site link and support email shown in the email which I got were correct but when I placed my mouse over it the address shown was a different one...

hey this is called phishing. they will hack your password and then they will login to your account and take away all your money. dont even login with that link please.

thanks for your information and i found there are some other signals instead of words or digitals. so they misleading us to access another site..

They do send this as bulk mail and many people do receive this and many of them do also believe this and feel happy and in process will also make mistake in following their direction..!!

Well, you can check whether this mail is really come from LR or not by checking the email header details, from there, you should able to see the email address header, if it is not from LR site, then it is fake one. For me, i definitely think that this is a phishing mail.

i also receieved this email when i checked my email this morning.when i open the link. my libertguard tell me this is not safe and i close it soon. haha.

Some people are smart enough and they don't click any link from their email and there are many people who get easily cheated by these kind of mails

A friend of mine received a similar e-mail and clicked on the link provided. His account has been hacked.

Please delete this mail immediately. It is a phising mail because they try to get login details to steal your money. Never click on such link and report it to Liberty Reserve asap.
