Folks,

This is my first post on this forum. I just started my subscription to PC world yesterday (2/3/3012. Today I received an e-mail titled Thank you for your order, and it supposedly came from PC World. However when I checked the e-mail address of the sender (PCWorld_@xmr3.com)I did not detect the name on my machines Norton Safe Search engine.

Should I put this message in Spam or is there another way of finding out if this is not some hacker trying to compromise my system.

Thanks in advance.

I believe it is legitimate.

I believe that PCWorld & Macworld use a "third party" service to deal with the billing, which would explain the weird domain name. I got a similar message for my renewal of Macworld.

Of course, I cannot say for sure. Someone from PCWorld would need to comment.
