I create unique logins / email addresses for all the boards I visit, and did so for this board. That means whenever I receive spam or phishing attacks, I can easily identify the source.
The following email came from an email address uniquely associated with this forum, just in case anyone else has seen it. I can supply the raw data / headers if a board admin requests it.

If I recall correctly, this isn't the first time it's happened at Gigabyte - so they're pretty lax in the security department, which is very sad.
