I'm quite sure this is a scam, but I'm sharing it with others so hopefully nobody else gets caught up in it.
Today, I got this e-mail:
Hello,
Would you like to submit your site tomtest.com to our web directory OJYK.com?
In order to do so, please use this form:
http://www.ojyk.com/add-link.cgi
Reciprocal links are appreciated:
<p><a href="http://www.ojyk.com/">OJYK.com</a> - Web Directory</p>
Thank you.
Regards,
Mark Harris.
...Well a google search yielded few results and was not helpful. I would bet that if I clicked on the link for the form, I would end up downloading a virus, spyware or a key-logger.
I wondered if some sort of spam-bot or bored Eastern European dude harvested my website from here. If so, others may get this e-mail. My advice is simply to delete it. It's tempting to e-mail back and ask for more info, but even that sounds risky.
Be careful out there!
All the best,
Tom Test

It looks like the beginning of a "link farm" No real info there besides whatever links you put on it. The WHOIS registers to a Mark Harris in Seattle, so it looks legit, but not too interesting. _________________ "When I was your age, we had to dial to get online"
