    Dear Player,
    
    We regret to inform you that your account has received an infraction due to a Major Macroing offence. Please visit the appeal section under Account Management to view evidence of your infraction(s) and to appeal any infraction(s) that you feel were unjustified.

    I was curious to see if anyone else received this email, because I just noticed it was fake. The link actually lead to;
    Code:
    http://secure.[B]ruanescape.co.cc[/B]/m=weblogin/loginform.ws.htm?mod=offence-appeal&ssl=1&expired=0&dest=account_history.ws
    And phished an account I literally JUST purchased earlier in the day. I'm curious to see how many people have gotten this email, and if you have, BE WARNED.

    Learn from my mistake, always check the URL bar. :cool:

    It's a phishing email. They are very common among users on sites like these. Jagex doesn't contact you via email unless it's news, account recovery, or personal.

    Hurr durr. I'm not an idiot, I knew it was a phishing email, but they got me at a bad time, where my mind slipped. Unfortunate enough for me. Little late for the warnings though, so spare me those, please.


    You have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't download anything, I clicked a link.

    Definitely a phishing email. Things like this happen from having a public MSN on your forum account.

    Never use a sythe email for a runescape account. Then you will allways know that when you recieve these emails, they are fake. Whenever you post your email on a site/forum like this; you will be a target of someone so be careful.
