UPDATEDThis is crosslinked with Debbie Reynolds blog, please read her blog here

I received the above email this morning from Debbie Reynolds (actually it was from a hacker), we all know Debbie and what a wonderful ambassador she is on A/R.  The email itself seemed odd and I received it on my phone.  At first I thought it was an email/link she forwarded to me from some individuals who have been trying to slander my name on the internet and who have been sending childish links and emails to other email addresses, they will be dealt with very shortly.  I decided to call Debbie and ask her what this email was in reference to?  She called me back and notified me that her account had been hacked and that the link was probably from hackers, phishing for information sent out to untold numbers of Active Rainers.

Lets take care of one another and remain vigilant and alert and protect our community.  If you received a similar email DO NOT open it, it locked my computer up for 2 hours just reading the email. I've had to change all passwords, and I use a minimum of 16 numbers, special characters and letters.

Lou,

No problem, I'm sure the great staff at A/R (Kerrie) is on it.

I'm sorry guys for this. I feel bad for Debbie and all those who oppened that email.

Thanks for heads up, so I know if I ever receive a AR member email.

I saw this email as well, but I didn't open it. It looked super-suspicious. I couldn't imagine Debbie sending something this generic.
