Default Beware: Possible Avid Beta Scam???
In the past week, I have received two emails inviting me to Avid's Beta testing program. The latest email reads...

Quote:
You've been invited to participate in new product development through Avid's Beta testing program. However, I realize that there may have been an account activation issue so I'm circling back around to ensure you've been able to login to the Avid Music Tools project.

If not, please activate your account at the link below.
Once you visit the link it prompts you for your Avid account login info, including password. It is coming from a the domain, centercode.com. Is this legit?

Centercode is the software they use but that doesn't mean it's legit.

Hopefully someone from Avid will see this.

Yes, it's legit. That's the provider we use to host the beta forums.

Actually, I'm surprised you didn't receive an email from William Marshall in the first instance, Mark.
