Mine was from ross. HOWEVER mine was from coderlegions (s at the end.)

coderlegions.com is a GoDaddy Parked domain, but that is word for word what mine said.

Ok, now I'm EVEN MORE confused (if that was even possible) because the actual programmers network was coderlegion???

Okay so let me break it down:

  1. coderlegion.com is an official programmer network.
  2. coderlegions.com is the scam I got sent
  3. coderslegion.com is the scam you got sent.

The scammers are putting "s" in places to impersonate the real address.

Does this make sense? (please tell me it does...)

They got back to me, those are legit emails, they alternate between them to make sure that google does not flag it as spam.

Uhhhh... that seems really sus. I don't buy that. HOWEVER, coderlegion.com does seem newer.
