Tonight I navigated to www.muskiefirst.com and just after landing on the home page, a separate window opened. At the top of the page it said National Customer Survey OUTDOORSFIRST followed by a "Congratulations" message. A female voice announced that I had been personally selected to do a short 3-question survey which seemed harmless enough and since it appeared to be coming from this site, I started answering the questions which led to a 2nd screen stating I was going to win an ipad and then it wanted some info including my "cell" phone number. Uh-oh. Looks like phishing to me. Is this survey legit? If not, who do we report this to? I think I aborted the survey in time, but time will tell. It almost looked like had I continued I'd be agreeing to sign up for some service for $9.99 per month that would bill my mobile phone. Is this possible?

Your reaction to this?? And should I be reporting this to someone? Who?

Not anything to do with OutdoorsFIRST.

I sent this off to Zach to take a look. Our URL is muskie.outdoorsfirst.com.

Zach says it's your machine. Probably a virus.

Go to your anti-virus protector and do whatever they say. A bad virus can wreck everything.
