Well a lot of you know I'm a member on Swagbucks, and the reason well is pretty self explanatory.

I was completing offers today, as well as doing the surveys, and well you get the drift to get mega SB. However I installed some application (some stupid game), and after it's installation it opened up IE, and showed me this website.

Notice the url is not Swagbucks.com, and at the bottom it says that page is not affiliated or sponsored by Swagbucks.com.

Just to pointout don't get fooled by this crap. As long as you don't click that button you won't get a virus. I tested this in a virtual machine after being emailed about it, and I thought I would mention it to you guys that are members.

Yes dont be fooled by these stupid scams I get a lot of these in emails aswell saying their from my bank but when you hover over the link/button the website it would take you too has nothing to do with the bank.

Also I tried the link from the image you posted mike and added a different site to the end of it saying "=ThisIsACon.com" and it comes up with a box saying "Attention ThisIsACon.com user..." :lol: ..not a very sophisticated script they have running there lol.

Thanks for the warning mike cooll;
