    I got something very similiar to this, can't be sure it is the exact same as it is in my hotmail which I can't access from work. I got it yesterday and was a bit sus since I already have a real money account there, albeit empty.

    I got the same email. It's definitely spam of some sort however the links are actually ok so i don't know what he is gaining. He might just be an affiliate looking to increase his signups. I'd report it to party but I'm too lazy.

    Aye knew it was rubbish, just wondering if it was a keylogger with mis-directed .exe files. Although they can have my $4 bucks since i've quit until the summer.

    Its just simple spam of the sort that often gets posted here by idiots. Nothing too sinister.
    The link isn't to PartyPoker, its to PartyPoker/affiliateNo=xxx type of thing.
