    LENOVO products for sale and phishing emails


    I have just started receiving Spam emails from dubious senders purporting to sell Lenovo Products.

    I want to alert Lenovo by forwarding to them in addition to the UK Police alert system at

    report@phishing.gov.uk

    But despite having looked all over the Lenovo websites I cannot see an address similar to what organisations such as Apple or Amazon use like: Apple Phishing: - reportphishing@apple.com/

    Can you suggest the address to which I might send them on to please?

    Thank you.

    Andrew:
    I have two Lenovo computers and therefore I participate from time to time in the discussions on the Lenovo forums.
    I have entered a query there, asking anyone who knows the right contact info to get back to me.
    I'll post in this thread if anything comes of my query.

    Those forums aren't really active like TenForums. I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. Maybe we'll get lucky, and maybe we won't. Lenovo people are supposed to be monitoring the forums, but I've seen no real evidence of any corporate supervision.

    Off topic, but since I've found someone familiar with Lenovo forums, ... (I'll take this offline if requested.)

    I tried registering for the Thinkpads forum (Thinkpads Forum - Index page) and got rejected as a spammer. I tried emailing the forum's administrator and they blocked IP address on their email server for 4 hours (repeated when I tried 4 hours later). I then got on the official Lenovo forum (community@lenovo.com) and got a response to my query the next day.

    I know the Thinkpads forum is not run by Lenovo, but is it a legitimate forum? It seems to have a lot of traffic so I assume it does not flag everybody as a spammer.

    I go to this site: English Community-Lenovo Community about my Lenovo desktops sometimes. People who are associated with Lenovo (or appear to be) show up there occasionally and answer questions.

    I have no idea about the legitimacy of the Thinkpad forum. Sorry I can't help.

    I forward scams to scam@netcraft.com as well.

    You can also see if those sellers are one of the sellers authorized in your area. Partner Locator Search - Lenovo Support GB
