PHISHING WARNING: “ROLAND BACKSTAGE” email

[peterp]

Careful with your emails
I've started to get emails saying they are from "Roland Backstage" found this warning about them
http://forums.rolandclan.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=42127

What got me suspicious was the reply to address of <rolandus@reply.bronto.com>
and Thunderbird flagged it as a phishing email right away.
They are trying to get you to go in and change your roland password using a fake link to a harvesting site.

It looks legitimate to me. I have many emails from Roland US going back to Oct. 2009 and they're all from "rolandus@reply.bronto.com". I believe bronto.com is a marketing company which Roland uses to handle their mailing lists.

Still, it pays to be cautious. Instead of using the links in the email, go directly to the Roland Backstage website to change your password:
