heh very very fake
But for future reference? STO isn't run by NCsoft.
And if you're paying NCsoft to play STO... lawyers are gonna be in a feeding frenzy to-night! :eek:

Also, why post this on the STO forums? It doesn't even mention Star Trek Online.
did you play City of Heroes at any point?
The first sentence, and how it's constructed grammatically, is often very telling whether or not an email is fake. This sentence tries to be correct, but ultimately fails.
Who ever said high school English Composition wouldn't be useful?
I think I see what you are talking about
instead of saying "we have evidence that suggests that your account has...."
they say "we have the evidence to prove that your account has...."
its a slight variation in the wording that makes it sound scarier, but ultimately sounds unprofessional
As mentioned NCSoft doesn't handle STO, and it's a scam; the same question and email gets posted a lot on the City of Heroes boards. See the COH Announcement here:
And don't even go to that website.
It's probably got a keylogger on it, at the very least.
The thing is, i never played aion ^^
