That's just playing on the ignorance of the player. It's sad that things like that happen, but then again -- Even getting an email of that format isn't any better -- There was an account database leak some time in the past, revealing everyone's account and email. Thereby, it isn't possible to judge the authenticy of such acts, and by cause, shouldn't be trusted.
Something the globals could do against such people is creating an account and leaving security means such as this one accessible. The player in question would log onto the playerworlds with it, (obviously enough), and their IP would display -- These people may and should be IP banned unless their IP is too dynamic.
Other locations not to enter passwords in: Ingame data information should never handle your passwords. If they request a password, never put it as the one for your account. If they ask for your account password -- Simply discard the request. If you suspect your account has been stolen or hacked, use the site's password changer, or contact the Accounts Admin via Support Desk. (If the playerworld in question asks for the account's password, this act should be reported as well) |
