Default WARNING! Pretty sure i found an email scam WARNING! You decide

I revcieved 2 emails today, 1 from AP, and 1 from UB, which just looked very VERY similar. So i do alittle diggin'

First of all, the 2 emails.

-

-

But, they are SUPOSIDLY MERGRING, so, this could be ok, right?

THENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

I notice this

-

-

WTF?!?!
Every email from these sites has come from "support@(insert site name).com

Then this was the iceing on the cake

-

I copied the link locations of 1 link from each email, and here are the results

AP's copied URL
-

- UB's


THOUGHTS?

And, if this is a scam attempt, how the fuck do both have my screen names, as they were in the titles to the emails

I would check it out with the poker rooms. Looks like a scam though.

Not a scam just log into AP, and it pops up.

You should contact the sites at a known-good address and see what they say.
