I got an email titled Hello from IORR+ with a link to the "IORR+ 2023 August Newsletter", I've never received an email from IORR other than resetting my password, is someone scamming me?

Interesting… but no, not so far. Following with interest.

Not me............ just checked my email

No sir

Nope

I did. I couldn’t open it on my iPhone.

I would say it is obviously scam and nothing real from BV

no

No, definitely a scam.

Scam ....

[ I want to shout, but I can hardly speak ]

IORR does not send out newsletters or e-mail with links. Please see the sticky post on IORR:

Thank you, BV.

I got it too.

I just got an email inviting me to join a 'Stones concert party' facebook group website. I didn't even open the email.

The world of Internet is getting increasingly more complex and mad. More and more hackers and criminals are trying to make a profit, economically, politically an so on. This was not the case 20 years ago.

Everyone have to take care of their own security. It is not complicated, just follow the advices as published in the sticky threads on IORR.
