Ok, I understand that most people here are high level well experienced players, but I wanted to inform you of the new RMT tactics. I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced these but this was my first one.

If you have any friends that just started playing the game let them know as well. This is pretty serious. I mean I'm pretty sure someone brand new to the game that just started could possibly fall for something of this nature. So please let it be known ^^

This is addressed in a message when you login to the game. I'm sure everyone appreciates the extra heads up, but there's already been lots of warnings about it.

They inform you of this scam when you hit the play button now.

At least for PC it does.

Yeah, I know about the original post SE has on the login screen but I've never seen an actual tell about it. so wanted to show everyone.

But I'm sure some people don't even read that to began with. ^^;

I'm surprised that they actually managed to pull this large a text through the /tell function.
Unless they actually stuffed some linefeeds in there ...

But it doesn't even really look like a good fake to begin with. Wouldn't be surprise it if were just some scriptkiddies at work.
