Same reason they try to sign up with spammer accounts, post things like iphone ads, etc. They get paid some amount for every link they post. I've gotten very good at filtering them at sign up (sometimes 30 per day) and now I guess they want to try existing accounts.

Just make sure you have a complex password, should be fine.

So they are not trying to steel my reef secrets or plagiarize my sarcastic PM's?

That's a relief.

OK thanks, I was thinking "blanket" type e-mails like regular junk e-mails I guess.

At the extent of sounding like an idiot, what is the motive for trying to access a fish hobbiest message board account? My 2 emails and online banking use 3 different passwords and my other online accounts forums whatever use different passwords. What possible benefit could they have from a message board?
