Fake Rolexforuns - email scam

Beware of any email with a fake URL

There is one going around called https//rolexforuns. com

Note RolexforuNs It has a N instead of an M

DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK IN THE EMAIL

If you're asking if the email you have received (your screenshot above), is legitimate, the answer is NO.
That is a scam, as Lol-x has stated right above your post.

Got same emails a while back but I usually don't click on links, I'll rather search the site on a new tab. But Thanks for sharing Steve.
