...did you determine that this is potentially phishing/a virus? I have received the same this morning, no surprise that I am on their mailing list because I'm a customer... and the new release has been expected. I don't see what the problem is. | | | Denis HAY Local time: 10:20 English to French No scam at all… | Apr 30, 2009 |

1) the links point to an address other than wordfast.com 2) I am not on their mailing list 3)The Wordfast web site makes no mention of "Wordfast Pro +. 4) Everyone of the links in the e-mail message are the same though the text says you are going to different areas. 5) I would like to know if anyone actually clicked on the links and everything was okay?? I don't usually click on links that come in e-mails | | | Marketing Tool | May 1, 2009 |

The link will redirect you to http://www.wordfast.com/products_wordfast_Pro_Plus.html making the note in the system that you clicked the link (the link is adjusted for each recipient, it's not the same for the whole mailing).
