I received a message from "purportedly" Bricklink saying my store has
been suspended.
I received this message from dom1470 (0) a few moments ago.
It is asking for my personal data.
This is either a joke or a scam right? Because whilst I may be a bit of a provocative
butt head I certainly never break any of the ToS of Bricklink and always pay
my fees and dues in a timely manner and have a 100% store rating.
Regards
Steve

do not post the actual scam link... or personal information
yes 100% a scam. a legit mail from BrickLink will never start with "Dear
user" they will always use your actual name (or sometimes username)
BrickLink will never ask for a payment card as they do not process any payments!
it all goes through Paypal (fees) or the Lego website (Designer program)
