My two cents to the community.

Well today when I was in school, I got an email on my phone from Jagex (Or so I thought). Of course I was surprised because I'm not used to this. So I go to the school computers to check it out. But first, I go to RuneScape.com. I realized that my school had put the filter back on again :'( (But this was a great thing!). I then clicked on the "Official" Email from Jagex and I saw it wasn't blocked what so ever. So there it is, it's a fake phishing site. I closed out of everything, didn't type my username or password and left.

I got home to do some more research about this because I was interested. Here it is.



Here's what it looks like.

Seems pretty legit right? Except, I'm pretty sure jagex never addresses you by "Dear player" though.

Here's the Fake Website:

Here's the Real Website:

I hope that I was able to help some of you out. Enjoy your day, it's beautiful outside.

Very interesting, the only phish I have ever seen was one talking about runescape classic. But i'm not a dumbass, so I didn't click it.

It's a good phish but it's been posted alot, no need to re-post it.

Wow, it's sad that they obviously put much time and effort into this.

Random account info does the trick.
