IF YOU RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM US THIS MORNING: DO NOT WORRY ITS COMPLETELY BOGUS WE APOLOGIZE :(

IF YOU RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM US THIS MORNING, PLEASE DISREGARD IT: IT IS COMPLETELY BOGUS. WE DID NOT SEND IT. OUR EMAIL SERVICE WAS HACKED THIS MORNING AND THOUSANDS OF EMAIL WERE SENT OUT SAYING THE FOLLOWING... "Your order 0228738277 has been successfully collected on your Hot Miami Shoes card 08904008719772.

Please note that season tickets can only be used from their specified start date.

If you use pay as you go on Hot Miami Shoes , consider using contactless instead."

We are not sure what this even means. We are a ladies shoe boutique and we dont sell "season tickets" and there is no such thing as a "hot miami shoes card." Rest assured there was no order placed.

If you tried to reach us by phone today, we may have not been able to answer because our phone systems were overloaded this morning. You can try us again later. We're sorry this was your first experience with Hot Miami Shoes. We are a legit company and have been victimized by an email virus. Please disregard the email.

Just sayin'..​

Yeah it tried install some strange shit when I clicked on the link, but my firewall caught it. That's when I googled. I've had credit cards opened in my name before, so it was a deja vu moment for me.

Why would you click the link? FYI, it could have still gotten malware to you even if your anti-virus stopped it from doing other stuff. Never click links from obvious phishing stuff.

Yea, dont click those links. I would only click it if running Linux and Firefox with ABP and noscript, or something like that. Def not winblows.

Well, as I said, I've had credit cards opened up in my name, and I didn't even realize it happened, until the merchandise and/or bill arrived at my door. So I thought someone had done it again, that's why I thought it might've been a warning from their fraud department, hence I clicked the link.

is this on line only? I don't buy shoes or clothing anywhere except for B&M stores, except for tees.
I prefer to try it on before I buy.
