PerfectNW - is this a scam?

mungsu

I'm guessing that other people have received an email from a site called PerfectNW which looks like a Neverwinter clone running on something called the "Perfect" server. The graphics and description make it look like the Perfect World Neverwinter, even down buying Zen. But I'm suspicious.

Does anyone know what's up with this?

Somebody stole code to run a server and is trying to cover the cost of running that server/make some extra cash by tricking people into spending money there.

Also, you should check for malware if you visit the site unless you want to risk having a keylogger steal your NW information. And if you're adventurous* enough to make a login to it, don't use the same email/login/password as here unless you really really want to give away your PWE account to someone you don't know.

This has been covered in multiple threads. This is not a legitimate site, but a private server.

If the email did NOT come from @perfectworld.com or @crypticstudios.com it isn't a legitimate email and should be disregarded and/or reported as spam to your ISP or email provider.
