What the scammers are currently doing

[tylre]

Taking our emails off of forums such as Sythe, and emailing us from "Jagex Ltd." They'll phish us using information such as "Your account has been given an infraction due to Major Macroing/Real World Trading." The link IS NOT to the actual RuneScape page, it's to a mirror site.

The email will look exactly like a Jagex email would.

Please don't fall for this phish, thought I should let you guys no.

Yeah, I get them a lot too. Like if I don't respond in 2 days my acc will be banned and such. ALWAYS check the link they give you, REAL RS pages have a lock before the url in ur browser bar.

 

[i noob killer i]

If you hover over the link it will tell you the website as it will show the real website adress on it.
