Did you send a request to support? This is the validation email you get. Please read it, it asks you to reply to confirm *you* are not a robot and that you want to go through with support request.

Certainly not. I have by Ben earlier been informed that BBO never do such. I have certainly not opened the mail. I reported it unopened as spam - my message here is to report warning others of this phising attack.
It is very dangerous to open such kind of mails. - I think it will be right of BBO to send a warning on BBO. I assume many have received this mail.

Just ignore it, like you'd ignore any other virus.
Someone sent an email (with a virus) to support@bridgebase.com and said that the sender was 'csdenmark@wherever'.
So the ticket system sent out a routine confirmation in plain text -- asking if you sent it, and if you did, to reply to the confirmation email to prove it.
Just ignore it.
