Hi Folks,
Received an unsolicited email offering unlimited games downloads.
When I clicked on the link, its website said it had 4million members. But my McAfee SiteAdvisor (which is free to download) went red and indicated they SUSPECT the site is used for phishing - but I was the first to have brought it to McAfee's attention and they haven't yet investigated.
As a rule, I'm reluctant to proceed any further with this 'too good to be true' offer of unlimited games.
So I ask you - have you used this site and, if so, when and is it safe?
http://www.gamedownloads.official.ws/
If you haven't used it, but want to risk it - please report back. Thanks.

If you go to the site and hover over any of the links, like "Get access now!" (do NOT click it though!), look in the status bar of your browser and the web address that the link goes to is different.
This is a SURE SIGN that there is something dodgy about the web page!

I just checked the site. Seems like you are right. Don't trust them. There's a lot of sites like that in the web. You have to be very careful, as some can drop a virus in your system which is very hard to get rid of.

If something seems too good to be true, it is. Don't go there!
