I found this in my email:

Thanks for playing Project-entropia

The Original link was disguised as:

I almost fell for it…

What makes me wonder is where those scammers get ppl’s email addresses. :confused:

Thanks for the info, Darkscorp. Wouldn’t have noticed anyway, as 99% of my mail goes into the spambin and I don’t read it very often (like every month) :smiley: , but well, that will help some people for sure.

And yes, I’d second that question MindBuster :slight_smile:
Maybe those scammers browse every forum and check for emails…

I was just thinking the same thing, they are prolly browsing forums.

I know if its from MA or from forums tho since Ive given different e-mails.

Thanks for the warning!

5

Yea good to know. I’m pretty sure my email is hidden… I think

6

People listen to other people talk ingame, visit society pages and forums, and I’m sure there are plenty of addresses there.

wow… isnt that illegal? to imitate another web page where login info is needed (almost page for page… you would think it was the actual PE page o.O).

scammers are getting both smarter and dumber every day :stuck_out_tongue:

another reason to check for correct URLs, or even just use the CL to login to that stuff, unless THAT page can be changed too… then were all screwed :rolleyes:

You mean 2 different accounts?
If so yes, it only effects the account it was purchsed for.
If more then one person uses same account then he needs access to the gold card also.

Yes, I mean two diff accounts on one computer. Thanks for the info :wise:

they are sloppy tho…the date is wrong…and the number of registrations…also i expect the news/community page would differ if MA updated theirs soon…

as always…a copy and paste of the link text ( www.project-entropia.com ) will take you to the right place…:slight_smile:

hehe i use mutt as a mail client so I can’t even open links even if i wanted to. :slight_smile:
