damn haxors

My WoW email account is constantly bombarded with phishing scams to nab my account info. I even started getting emails for an Aion account I sold about 7 months ago.

I just get a good laugh reading the emails.

I get about 1-2 a day. The e-mails constantly change so makring them as spam just doesn't work. But I get a good laugh at the bad grammar and the hidden links on the url in the email.

Edit- Lols. I posted the actual websites on the quotes. Sorry, not trying to get you guys hacked.

You know I use a old hotmail account for my battlenet account and was looking in my spam folder last week - there were literally hundreds of the type of scam email you posted. I bet they do get some retards like Treebark ;)

Yeah I'm using hotmail as well. It's the email I started back in 6th grade. I use a different e-mail as my primary now. I'm thinking about changing my e-mail for WoW just to avoid this kind of stuff.

My hotmail was labeling them all spam as far as I could tell.

Nothing I have found is better then Gmail at spam filtering.

My Gmail spam filter picks these up, but there's a shit ton of them ... they are pretty funny to read sometimes.

My hotmail account, which I have not used in about 7 years got hacked like 2 months ago...I even deleted it and it STILL is sending spams to people....

It's like a e-mail spam zombie!!
