I just reported the same message after a 3 hour fight to find it and kill it. It had a copy of a Dark Comet RAT hidden inside a XOR'd file inside 2 PNG shells, inside the program.. It took 2 hours to track it down and another hour to remove using my phone and bluetooth .-.
Good job!

I got it too, it's probably a scam - don't click any links.
it's scam.
i got this same message in my inbox figured it was a scam just deleted it
Can we name the link without posting it as a hyperlink so everyone is aware, just for future reference?

Definitely a scam. Got the same email, plus this person signed up under at least 10 different alt accounts on Coinchat and posted a link to this trade bot. People there had analysed the link in a VM or something similar and determined that it was not safe at all.
Link removed, now all is ok!
I reported the post to the mods so they could remove the link and they ticked it as inaccurate so I am guessing there don't mind that site
Scam.
scam
Also I've noticed that the message is spread everywhere but under different usernames and sites!
Be aware!
Be aware!
You thought it was a good Idea to leave a completely active link in the email.....
So that google search engines will pick it up and boost the rating of the scam site?
This is why I extol the virtues of some sort of license before people are allowed to use a computer......
