I hope I'm posting in the right spot for this. I've been a Parallels customer since v3 probably 15 years ago, and I'm currently using v19. About 3 months ago I started getting emails from someone who claims to be Alludo, which I see is the parent company of Parallels now. The email has a cheap cut-n-paste Parallels logo at the top, which looks like a lot of the current crop of scam emails ("You have won an Yeti Cooler!" or "You can receive an free Harbor Freight toolbox"), and it begins with "Thanks for being part of the Alludo referral program". I never signed up for any such program. It further states "To see detailed statistics and more ways to share, you can always view them on your Member Dashboard" and that link is probably 600 characters long and goes to a mass-mailing company". The cheap pasted logo, the slightly awkward grammar, the suspicious link - overall, the whole thing stinks of scam. Is this really Alludo?
Not being associated with either Alludo or Parallels (other than owning the program), that "email" smells, looks, and probably tastes like Spam. Do not open any links or respond in any way or you'll verify that you're a real person and your name and email address get shared with every scumbag spammer (and scammer) in the world.
I started looking closer at this email. The sender says "Parallels" but the name hidden behind that text is "no-reply@rrock.me", so this is most likely some scammer. How do I report this to Parallels? I would think they'd want to know someone has breached their system and gotten their customers' info.
