CookieMunzta · September 2010

It's a form of phishing.

Report the link to admin, and and usual, staff will NEVER ask for your info, they don't even need to

Absolutely wrong.
You can easily get a keylogger just by visiting a website. Just as any virus, always be careful on which websites you visit and make sure you always have your firewall turned on and a good AV program.

Report this via a support ticket.. This can be very serious as it does look genuine

I would be able to add to this one if it weren't over 19kb... My other one (you can't see it) was super sexy, but it was 60kb...

Lol no. If you go on unsafe webpages there are auto scripts which download files on your PC without you even knowing.

BigHarvey · September 2010

I got the same thing on an alt e-mail account.

Send it in to an admin, block the e-mail addy and don't click the link.

Hover your mouse over the link and it shows it's going to
m-sektionen.se/Mail/crossfire.php, not a crossfile web page

RunnyBabbit · September 2010

lol i typed in some random letters in every box and sent it in xD

This is highly unlikely and I haven't seen it done in over ten years.
When internet security was more of a joke then it is today.

Thread: Are you sure it was mail.z8games.com?

Typos in the email content, spoofed header and fake/scam page (look closely at the domain, it's not z8games.com it's used as subdomain)

i lol at the 'Email password' field.

CookieMunzta · September 2010

Damn, someone's gone to ALOT of effort with that O_o

Kinda worries you tbh, since most people probably will fall for that $:\$

Copying an AOL spam letter and getting smtp server?

All that sh1t will cost less than $15 and won't take 10 minutes to set up.

BigHarvey · September 2010

Not hard to do if you have a server of your own. Getting the HTML code is even easier, plenty of add ons for FireFox to grab the code and images and you just use on your server.

I know that....

That's still effort for a free game, and putting into consideration the usual route scammers take, is it not?

The other way works well enough.

With 1.5k of posts, I presume you've been here long enough to see the sheer amount of "waah I got my account stolen" threads.

I can't answer that question, maybe in xfire.

Not much, but yeah it's better that give me your account and pass for zp.

If they need to verify your account why would they need your email password ^^

Yea, That's just spamming Lobbies and cr4p, Only BRs or Ret@rds fall for that.
With Phishing you'd be surprised. Only thing which is stupid on this phishing page is 'Email Password' I mean wtf lol.
