Anyone else get this in their e-mail this morning?

Nope...

 

Is that a direct link to the sire that emailed you? I don't want to go there. Can you copy/ post what was said in the email but not the link?

 

yes I did and I am not too happy about it. If these jackasses start sending me email there is going to be trouble!! So Mr. moderator/internet brands make it stop.
I am serious

I didn't open it, I just thought it was strange. The original email showed a golden ticket
but wouldn't come up that way when I copied the link. I'm thinking spam and marked it as such.

 

Can anyone copy the email with sender/recipient header and post it?

 

Already dumped my spam folder. I have to do that a few times a day.

 

Didn't see it in mine, not even as junk mail...

 

Unread
Here it is copied and pasted from my email trash. Warning, I wouldn't click on it if I were you.

You've Been Invited: Get Restoration Videos & Tips at No Cost to You

It just says access denied when you click on it. Can someone post a screen shot of the full page of the email?

 

I got one and deleted it.

 

Eric couldn't get it onto one shot

Thanks Brett

 

That was the one. Thanks Brett.

 

Here is a screenshot

On a side note, Classic Car resto club has been around awhile and reputable. I believe its a pay per member site. Sent a pm to IB about the emails.

 

FWIW, I got one, too. Gone now - Deleted it without a second thought.

I did the same. Gone without looking at it.

 

I got one and deleted it since I already belong to Classic Car.

 

It says 'Admit One Free', but if you click on it, it opens a new webpage and the 'free' entry ticket changes to an 'Admit One' for only $7, instead of their normal cost of $28 for the entire restoration package.

 

I believe we used to call that "Bait and Switch" when I was a kid.

I got it, but never opened it up.

 

Got it too.

 

I've been getting those for years. They actually send along some useful tech tips and videos and some interesting reading, but mostly they want to sell subscriptions, which they're fairly relentless about. I just keep anything useful or interesting and delete the rest.


Near as I can tell, they're harmless.

 

I subscribed to that site about 2 years ago. They show you the obvious but nothing useful. They have you sign up with a credit card and, to my suspicion they try to auto pay with that card the next year. I 1 upped them by using a card that was going to expire in a week so no auto pay here. They promise all these tips and they never come. just delete it.

 

I deleted it.

 

we are not big fans of these emails either, but they do their part in keeping our lights on.

Feel free to ignore/delete/unsubscribe from them.

 

Thanks for the update Jose.

 

I got one as well. I opened the e-mail on my phone so it didn't display properly. I saw the ticket but the photos didn't come through. I just deleted it.
