MMO Scam... enfim..

Mirime

Ora bem.. Recebi uns quantos emails nos ultimos dias que davam a indicação de ser scams para me sacar a password, a maior parte deles pedia para visitar um website e colocar lá a minha info para verificar se estava ou não a tentar vender a minha conta..

Enfim.. as tretas do costume. O engraçado é que sempre que recebia esses mails acabava por responder com extrema educação (ou não).

Ao que parece este mail é mesmo da blizzard.. ou entao os scamers estão cada vez mais inteligentes, ao que parece eu acabei por responder para o mail da Blizzard. Como não sou um expert em informatica não faço ideia se realmente da para enviar mails com um endereço de outra pessoa mas o que me deu a entender com isto é que talvez o mail que recebi agora seja mesmo da Blizzard até porque não tem qualquer tipo de link para clikar, somente avisam para o facto de o mail anterior ser uma tentativa de me tirar a info.

A minha resposta está a Bold.

Greetings,

Thank you for your email. Please be aware that the email you have received is a known scam attempt, intending to "phish" for your account information and steal your account. Many of these emails may appear to be from Blizzard, and are imitating the typical structure of our emails, even going as far as using the names of some of our Account Administration team in the signature.

Remember, we will only ever contact you from an email address ending in @blizzard.com (typically from [email protected] or [email protected] or @email.blizzard.com in the case of the Newsletter). We will only ever redirect you to a website registered to wow-europe.com, blizzard.com or worldofwarcraft.com.

In addition, a Blizzard Employee will NEVER ask for the password to your account or email address. Other account information, such as your Secret Question/Answer and CD key will only be requested if your account is suspended, or if you have contacted us for assistance (for example, to change your registered email address).

Please read these posts on our forums for further information:

We strongly recommend you do not reply to the email or follow any link provided, as it may result in your account becoming compromised. If you have already sent your information in response to the email, or filled in your details on a phishing website, please contact us to secure your account.

In these cases we cannot accept your Secret Question/Answer and CD key as verification of ownership; you will need to provide us with the following information:

- A fax, scan or digital image of nationally recognized photo ID, such as passport or drivers license (please do not include public transport cards, library cards etc, as these are unsuitable for our needs)

Please would you include with this, your full Name, Address, Account Name and E-mail Address and send it via one of the following methods:

Webform: http://eu.blizzard.com/support/webform.xml

E-Mail: [email protected]

Fax:

Post:

Once we have received this, we will be happy to assist you further.

Subject: World of Warcraft - Account Confirmation

Greetings,



An investigation of your World of Warcraft account has found strong evidence that the account in question is being sold or traded. As you may not be aware of, this conflicts with Blizzard's EULA under section 4 Paragraph B which can be found here:

WoW -> Legal -> End User License Agreement

and Section 8 of the Terms of Use found here:


WoW -> Legal -> Terms of Use

The investigation will be continued by Blizzard administration to determine the action to be taken against your account. If your account is found violating the EULA and Terms of Use, your account can, and will be suspended/closed/or terminated.
In order to keep this from occurring, you should immediately verify that you are the original owner of the account.

To verify your identity please visit the following webpage:

LINK DUVIDOSO...

Only Account Administration will be able to assist with account retrieval issues. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter, and your continued interest in World of Warcraft.


Sincerely,

Account Administration
Blizzard Entertainment

 
Última edição:
Sim é possível, eles não enviam o mail pelos servidores da blizzard, mas conseguem mudar o email do sender, é algo que uma ida ao google e em 5 minutos já tu sabes fazer :p

Se vires os detalhes da mensagem que recebeste (ver por que servers passou), consegues ver que não foi enviado pela blizzard.
 
ÉPIC ONE! :D

Obrigado pelos momentos de riso, mas estes vão ficar para a história...

Enfim a do ".!." e do "eles gostaram", bem.... :D AWESOME!

EDIT: ARTIFACT ONE!*
