auto-mail beta testing service - Today, 01:06 AM

Good day PWI user,

It is our joy to tell you that you are selected for the new beta testing.

Sign in to try the new skills, weapons, armors and mounts.

You will not only see the new updates of 01-09-2010, but you will recieve a payment of 500 ZEN for doing so.

activation code: 4h3ebnd42d

Happy testing!!

The line that says "Sign in" was linked to a site asking for my PWE ID and password.
There's no such thing as a "Perfect World" full of Jade, diamonds, gold, and other riches and treasures. There is only an imperfect world, with an imperfect society, full of imperfect people, with imperfect idea's about how to be perfectly rich and perfectly perfect. No one cares about being perfectly kind, perfectly fair, or perfectly content.
It's a perfectly sad world.

    Yep, make sure to sign in so you can give your account (and any info that might include RL address/phone/email) away to some anonymous person.

    <3 phishing.

    Edit: I actually took a screenshot of mine but looks like no need now with this topic. You got the very same one.

    Yea, lol. I'm all too familiar with these kinds of schemes. PWI isn't the only mmo I play and they all have rats in the woodwork like this.

    Yeah, any beta testing from PW requires to you sign in, click on a button, go to your email, verify there, and then go to your account and enter your beta key lol.

    So yeah, they're phishing XD.

    Yes, that e-mail that you received is not real, and is an epic FAIL of a phishing attempt. Please send a ticket so the GM's can properly PWN them.
