Slitherine

I can't tell if this real or not: I received an email that says I have been invited to the beta, but I can't possibly be expected to click on a link that "says" its slitherine.com/forum.... when the true link is actually http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?.....

If this is a legitimate email then your company is making a huge mistake, this is how PHISHING emails are done, by creating fake links like that, I would never click on something like that.

This is basic internet security and virus avoidance that everyone should follow.

this is up to the nice folks at slitherine. i dont even know how the mails look. i will ask them to have a look. but i agree you should be cerful with strange links!

Yes it is legitimate. The reason is that we have to use a mail service to get mails through. You'll probably find most other generated e-mail come from similar mail services. You can tell the mail is legitimate because it has your personal details in there, which Phising mails don't. The redirect is part of the process so we can track how many people click the links. Sorry if this causes any confusion, but this is the way it has to be done.
