Jagex never PMs you to your hotmail/G-mail/Yahoo!/AIM. NEVER.

And even if... Who would fall for @petml.com :\ ? (Don't fall for @jagex.com either, it can be faked.)
 
Anyone can figure this out.

If you fall for this, you don't belong on a forum like Sythe. Simple.

Well, saw some threads with people who ask what to do, after they done something like that xD
 
Its kinda obvious, you can tell by the bad spelling, the wrong email, the fact that they want all your recovery info when they could pull it up on there own, and that jagex tells the truth about this one thing (never emailing you).
 
his spelling aint all that bad. fallen, point out the bad grammer or spelling
 
This was posted in the dispute forum, and the kid seemed like he pretty much fell for it....so other people are dumb enough to do it too.
