Wiggle Scam - not a scam

[Sharky]

Just received an email pretending to be from Wiggle. Could have been genuine but very suspicious.

Said, due to a scheduled audit on the 24th April, my order history will no longer be available. Should I want to retain my history, just had to click on their link to down history!

Of course, I just deleted the email. Did anybody get similar?

Had a few of these in the last few weeks/month or so. It's due to a software update or something so is actually happening. I have received orders with paper copies of receipts that state the system upgrade will render order history un-readable so please retain paper copy.

It is not a con..... Unless you are being scammed and your email is a scam?

I had the same email today.

Yes also from Wiggle

Same but from Chain Reaction...

I never even open an email from any business. Just did a mass deletion this afternoon of hundreds of unopened emails, very cathartic.

Got one from Chain Reaction Cycles. It looked genuine to me but I've not bought much from them so didn't bother clicking on the link.

Whereas I’ve made perhaps 4 (?) orders with them in the last 6 months. Inc 2 x new bikes since Xmas: and have definitely not had an email from them…..

Vagrancies of the Electronic World…..🤷‍♂️

I had the same email, I think I better log in and change my password, I pay with paypal though so hopefully they haven't got much :-/

 

[vickster]

Yep same here, changed password but no reason to think it’s a scam

A system audit will never cause loss of data. As a government entity we are audited annually. They look at stuff, they add numbers up, sometimes they subtract, but they never delete. It is a scam. Hover over the link and look at where it really goes. It probably links to scammersRus.co.ru

Mouseover says click.emails.wiggle.com.

Looks legit but I haven't ordered enough to risk it. One way to know for sure is if, and I know this is a long shot, someone on this cycling forum has received the email and has never created an account on wiggle.

It's genuine. It was written on my delivery note I got with a package today. Nothing to worry about.

I got it too, but since I don’t care if my order history gets deleted, I don’t care…….it’ll avoid me looking at how much I’ve spent!

I've had that e-mail, I was suspicious and deleted it, its been a long time since I last used Wiggle.
