Thanks for being vigilant

Excellent, thank you👍

Thanks, i did receive an email today from RGS, asking for a reference for a deal with another member. I replied through the forum so my email was not visible to him i hope ?.

Yes, several members have reported receiving a PM from 'RGS' in relation to a potential purchase from member 'jakubL.'

So I replied saying I never had a deal with Jakub before. So whats the scam?

If this is the extent of your exchanges with this criminal (or criminals), and they took place via PM, I think you will be safe from spamming. They shouldn't be able to contact you again from RGS’s account after it was deactivated earlier today.

Thank you for your heads up and vigilance

👍🙏

Thank you for warning, I got a message form him too, i ignored it, just letting you know

Thank you for the information, we appreciate it👍

Thanks for the heads-up, I got the email today too.

Another filthy scammer

Thanks Jakub, we are getting to the bottom of this and we appreciate your cooperation👍

sent me email and ask me kick to link to confirm

Thanks again, I just deleted your external links.

Same here, I replied but played it safe.

Ditto

Same here

That “dude” send me the message twice!

Thank you, please simply ignore his PMs and do not engage👍

Thank you for the update Fab...

Thanks Captain, please also see the email I sent to the chat👍

Replied 👍

👍👍

Thanks for the vigilance guys! I did receive a PM but did not respond

Thank you, excellent call👍

That explains it. Thanks for the notification.

Thanks Echi👍

Big offensive of the scammer who also contacted me.

I replied oops

It happened to multiple members, but if you simply engaged via our PM system you should be entirely safe👍Cheers.

Good to know. So if we just replied to WPS email, without changing address names, we should be fine?

Correct, if you mean you replied to a PM that was automatically forwarded to your email, then your identity should be protected👍

Excellent. Thank you

PM went directly to..

Glad that I also killed the IP address of the real RGS for now, so he can’t read this..😂 (He’ll be fully restored after this entire thing has been figured out, of course.)

Thanks for making this so visible!!

Thank you, glad you’re safe👍

Thanks Roberto, this is the PM several members received this morning around that time. All PMs we are currently aware of contain that message. (Note that ‘WatchProSite time’ recently moved to GMT, hence 8:46am is 10:46am in Italy or 4:46am in NYC).

Thanks

👍

Well done, my friend.

👍🙏

Too late for me

I just noticed that there is another response from him in my personal email. I did not open it

Excellent, I just sent you a PM. Please move that email to spam without opening it👍

Me too!

I feel left out : )

I heard they were trying to spare people with the same first name, scammers also have their rules...;-))

Gosh....Hope they don't put a Ransomware and hack me, then ask me to pay with my watches to unfreeze my account :)

Wait until you get the /1300A and then I'm afraid it's open season...;-)) Stay safe my friend, all will be good.

Thanks for the warning, Fab. I received a lot of pms, sms and mails for members of our Community to inform me that they received strange PMs. Thank you and THANKS to our Community for being so vigilant!

We are all on the same team, thanks for all you are doing Nico🙏😉

Got the PM as well. Thanks for the notification. Basic rule of the internet: never answer on a PM that‘s requesting you to answer by email instead of just answering by PM. It‘s always scam.

Not a bad rule ;-) Thank you Sir.

Thanks Fabricio for the info.

Thank you Weems ;-)

Thanks for the info Fab. Great work to jump on the situation swiftly 👍

Thanks Justin👍

No, thank you Fab 🙏🙏

oh…...

Thanks for your feedback (and also for the comment above, which included a new type of email; please just don't include links). For now, cease all communications immediately with this criminal and block him across all your accounts, including WhatsApp.

scam & scum

🙏👍

Thank you for the quick action...

Excellent, thank you👍

When you find the scammer, Fab, send him my way. I've found . . .

Oh, but he must be sooo far away that I’m sure it’s impossible to bring him to the US..😂
