You may get an email from ELIXIO – like the one below. Don’t reply to the e-mail. Just mark it as SPAM. Leave a comment below if you, too, are a target of this unsolicited e-mail.
ELIXIO is a scam, and here are the reasons you should not trust Elixio:
- The host that “elixio.net” is on is a $10/month shared web host. Can’t be that big a social network.
- Elixio does not use SSL for signups / sign in
- Their e-mails do not use a certified mailer such a constant contact or vertical response. They don’t have a trusted opt-out link.
- If you do sign up they only allow an alphanumeric password – no symbols? This is poor programming and a lack concern of security.
