I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this or if anyone else has posted this but I just got an email that seems like a phishing scam. I've gotten a lot of them trying to phish account info for WoW but this is the first Eve phishing scam I've seen in email. It says:

Might be worth contacting CCP directly about it. Maybe they can post a warning about it.
Though I'd suspect the average EVE player is so experienced with scams by now that the attempt seems laughable.

Can I do that through the forum or do I have to do it through petition?

Are you suggesting that scams in EVE are impossible?

People who still get phished in 2010 by such obvious ones probably deserve to loose whatever they have
Same for the people who send Western Union deposits to some totally lost place in the middle of Africa and still think they got a good deal ...

I'm suggesting that a straight phishing scam would seem too obvious to be taken seriously. The scams we have to navigate in EVE are usually a lot more complex and subtle.

Locked as this does not belong in crime and punishment. All up to date info we have regarding phishing emails is located in the general chat under a sticky. This letter was updated on August 20th. Every time we update it we will update the date in the title of the thread.
