I just signed into my university email, and I've got an email from a website called TARGETjobs, confirming that I signed up last night (I definitely didn't). The website itself looks like a jobs website with a postgrad section. I clicked the 'lost password' button so that it would email me a reset link so that I could take control of 'my' account, and I managed to get into the account, which has some of my personal details in it but some incorrect ones.
I just wondered if anyone has experience of this site - is it a legitimate site or is it known for picking up details of postgrads from other sites and using the information to send out spam? I'm wondering if some 'helpful' person from uni has been setting up accounts for all the PhD students, but surely they would ask us rather than just going ahead. Just wondering if anyone has come across this site before!
