warning:

Today some messages appeared from a char named GGOLDER in Archosaur to let
players know they could have some free gold by going to a website. This website-
located on the ucoz.ru servers - shows a form in which you can give your
username/password and e-mail and ofcourse the message that PWI is cracked
to give free gold.

By giving your username/password you can loose your stuff
(so it's not cracking; it's hacking). By giving your e-mail adress you will get spam!

Don't ever use forms on the internet unless you know what you are doing.

And from this one: GGOLDER is located in the USA but the site he uses is
located somewhere else (all info can be found on the internet).
Hope that PWI will ban the IP adres :)

See you all in the game!

    it's not hacking either.. spoofing at best (pretending to be something they are not to obtain security details)

    either way anyone responding to such a message deserves everything they get (including a ban for trying to circumvent PWE gold system) - absolutely no sympathy.

    There is no place in a perfect world for double entendre!

    yeah Shulky, your right... it's spoofing. I'm wondering who
    actually give the info. Did see one guy today who claimed to
    have lost everything. Well, if he filled in the form he gets
    something in return: many spam messages in the mailbox. b:chuckle
