Dear D.D. SLING & SUPPLY,
It has come to our attention that a scam email was sent to many of our customers.
This email claims to be from Netwurx and asks for your email address and password.
This message did not come from Netwurx.

We will never email you asking for your username and password.

The people that send these scam messages hope to collect usernames and passwords so they can hijack your account and use it to send junk email/SPAM.

We have taken steps to block any replies to the scam message.
If you revealed your username and password to this scammer, please call our Customer Service center to change your email password as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
Jon, Netwurx Support.
