Im not sure why your making such a big deal out of it Kaz. I got one of those. You just follow the link which makes you log back on to trademe and all is confirmed. Easy stuff. Anyone can do it.

yep, anyone at all, and all their cohorts and friends too after you follow the link lol Does anyone actually get caught out by these attempts, although in saying that, the cook clicked on a bogus kiwibank link a while back, took a few hours to regain control which included a few calls via telephone to kiwibank so I guess I just answered my own question, doh
