Reported as well.

I just reported it here: https://support.google.com/mail/contact/abuse?hl=en&rd=1

If they get a few of these they will investigate because its in violation of their TOS. A few other people need to do this too.

I think, if it was like that, they would be doing the boss a favor, by supplying the boss with important documents? In which this is what the OP is asking for, major major important documents without naming their firm and dox.

This is where the bell rang for me.


Anybody new to the net, that knows no better, that pre-ordered @ bfl, find out they got scammed, then they send this person, their "the bfl victim" info, they just handed over important stuff to someone they don't know.

It's just a warning, be very cautious of this. I reported the link to a mod, and see no results yet.

Edit:
I'll put it here.

(Forum warning: Possible phishing link!)

you want me to give arms to a possible lawsuit?. Make bitcoin mining is always a risk. only a few are right in business. 

and what is the name of this firm that you are working for?

Unless you use a work email. Here's your chance to get back at ur boss. lol

The "BFL Bitforce SC - 5 GH/s for $274.00 - butterflylabs.com" was the advert when I posted this. lololol

Be very careful what you send to any email address. The OP should be edited by a mod, stating possible phishing or scam.
