Shelby American Email received that asks for Username and Password

[Shelby2809]

Did anyone else get an email from Shelby American about the new 2011 GT350, but when you open the email it asks for a Username and Password? I'm trying to figure out if this is a hack of some sort or a real email. Can one of the Shelby Staff take a look at this and let me know if it is safe. Also, why would you send an email that asks me to input a Username and Password? Thank you for taking the time to look into this.

I got it too... Locked up my mail client and Firefox for a while, then I had to force quit everything... What gives? It asks for your TeamShelby credentials, and doesn't accept anything you type. I'm going to change my password ASAP, think we've been hacked!

[JeffJ]

Yep, got it to, just deleted it. but it took a lot to get it to delete.

[Sherri Leicht]

I got it and it took forever to delete it.

[ingram4868]

Nothing here yet. I love my MAC.

[Grabber]

I got it and it took forever to delete it.

 

 

Me too. It took 7 trys to get it to go away.

 

Not clickin on that again.

[twobjshelbys]

Yep, I got it... The message couldn't open the images and it brought me to what looks like an "internal" site...

[mustangray]

I got that E-mail too I tried to enter my password ect. when it didn't respond I deleted and reset my password

[07shelbygt109]

Nothing here yet. I love my MAC.

 

Uh, I got it too and had the same problem with entering the password, and I have a Mac and use Mail. It wouldn't accept anything I typed so I tried opening it in Mail on my iPhone. On the phone I was able to click through to the site but immediately got a log-in screen.

 

Don't be too smug there fellow Mac user, we have problems too, just not as many.

+1 I got it on my Mac and it took forever to get it deleted.

Google (gmail) filtered mine out as SPAM... Had to go looking for it just to see what you guys were talking about...

^My Yahoo email junked it as well. Next time just enter your social security number. That ought to make it happy!

I did get it to open the GT350 ordering page.

[Torch40]

It locked up Firefox without even clicking on anything.

My guess it's a screw up on the new GT350 site. Hope someone will respond soon on this one...

[Slabo]

Had the same lock up. Looks like a permissions problem and it took a bit for it to timeout.

That is probably why I missed it. I never use my MAC or DSL email systems. I only sign on to Yahoo for email.

[David Hawkins]

I got it and deleted it. No need to take the chance.

 

Yep, Dito

[gt500dvr]

I just got it! DELETE...no problem. Thanks for the heads up guys.

[check6]

Got it through Netzero...deleted it with no problems...I did not put in my password

[FordRocks1]

I opened it through my iphone when I first got it and I had to click on the back button several times to make it go away, wish I would've read it here before.

[David Hawkins]

I have recieved it again (for the third time). I still have it (un-opened) hey Robert, want me to forward it to you when I get home tonight?

 

[Stalwart]

It asks for your user name and password for every image, the images must be on the password protected part of the server. I took my email off their list, I don't want to have to deal with such amateur foolishness.

[sharon]

I have forwarded this on to our IT department, so they can see what happened.

[Alexandros]

I got this too, thanks for looking into this Sharon...

[Torch40]

Robert or Sharon, what is up with this email?????

*edited*

Sorry didn't realize Sharon had responded. Hopefully the "IT" department gets on it soon.

My guess is, it is one of two things:

<01> someone did a Hack and Spamed it

<02> If it was sent by SAI, who ever sent it out, may have put a symble (or Key Stroke) in the wrong place.

 

In either case, it is NOT amateur foolishness, it is just Spam or a simple mistake.
