Matrix & Slitherine Rewards

Post by awaba »

Am I the only one getting flooded with spam purporting to be from this site? Careful everyone, someone's targeting users.

You can generally inspect any links in an email to ensure it is going to one of our official sites. If you have concerns then please email support@slitherine.co.uk with the email attached and they will check it out. Note that we do sometimes send out emails to players, but they are generally few and far between to avoid irritation :)

Cheers

It's a new system so probably just a glitch. I will pass it on to the appropriate people.

I received the same email today - just the once this time, not 4 times as with the previous - AND this time it had my details. Not the Dear #####
Looks like the bug in the mailing system is fixed.

Is this legit?

I opened the link, and got a code.

I went to use the code, and the link now states "the token provided is no longer valid for this user.

I suspect I should quickly change my password

Same crap here in 2025: "The token provided is no longer valid for this user
If you are having problems trying to get your coupon"; this is a great way to make me an ex-customer.

this is a post and now a reply from something that has worked well for years, the last error post was 2015, so a reply is incorrect, a new error or just spam, either way same advice as always, forward the email to support who can and will be happy to deal with anything site wise
