Thaught i would re-itterate the advice given on <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] about recent phishing attempts. My e-mail spam filter is full of such attempts from the likes of bogus e-bay, banks - security centers etc..... all telling me basically the same thing. best thing is to ignore any such e-mail, you should never click on a link / download anything sent to you by e-mail. If you arn't sure then contact the company via there 'help desk' on the official site.

 Over the past few days, you may have received an email, SMS or text message with a website URL that asks you to download and install security updates for the Poker client. Regrettably, this is a malicious phishing attack. If you click on the link a Trojan virus infects your computer.

For example, the subject may be something like, "<a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] Poker: Several different blacklisted I.P's have tried logging in to your <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] Account and several memorable data and password failure were present."

If you believe you are the victim of such an attack, please contact the <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] Helpdesk through the usual method, for assistance in protecting your <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] account and minimizing the risks from this threat.

If you have clicked on this link or installed the Trojan, our advice is to contact the helpdesk and request they suspend your account. Then when you have removed the Trojan virus your account can be re-activated and the password changed.

To help with protecting against attacks such as these, up to date Anti-virus programs should be used. For more detailed information on how to protect your computer and personal information while on the Internet select the help option on <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url]’s web pages and click on security within the menu. <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] will never contact you by email or SMS with a link to an executable for a security patch or product upgrade. You can always find information about planned upgrades and notices on the <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2108748-801842" target="_blank">betfair.com[/url] forum.
