TRF Login Phishing Scam

Just got a PM from a member here asking me for a reference check. He provided a link to see the listing in question, which takes me to a 3rd party site that looks like TRF - asking me to log in.

I simply replied to the message asking who the reference was for, and received no reply.

Be on the lookout

I got the same same one too.

Also it appears to be from a long time pledge member. Maybe someone was hacked too

I can't believe we live in 2022, and this still needs to be said.

Also - People still wire money to unknown persons, too.
Even warnings NOT to go unheeded.
"Live and learn" seems to be a common outcome at these watch sites.

Wow. I see you're still trying to scare everyone here on TRF with your "wire" nonsense. Why don't you step up and write a nice thread on how not to be scammed while making a watch payment.
