Lol. I've recieved alot of their emails. Other companies exist with similar names however I can't recall them correctly. They've sent me email upon email saying I should join but I just delete them as they come.

Its very obvious they're set up by nairalanders to defraud members of the site. I'm even suspecting moderators of running the scam because they're the only people I'm sure of who have a database of all members of this forum.
