Wanna make sure we get info to people ASAP about this email so no one gets hit with a blown account.

I know there is another topic concerning this, but not one asking PGI for an announcement to save players.

I would even like to see it on the log in page so no matter what people will get the message.



IF this is a legitimate email, than they need to address this promptly regardless.

"Liked" for Canada joke

Anyway, it looks legit to me. I haven't read the whole thread about it, but from the email itself, there is no indication whatsoever it's a phish. So if it is, it's very well done despite serving no purpose (no passwords).

We don't need multiple threads for it!

Especially not in the same sub forum, when the original thread is still on page 1 and active, including a post by the OP.

Why do you insist on backseat moderating?

Old habits don't die easy!

But intentional duplicate threads like these are nothing but uneccessary. PGI is informed (as mentioned in the other thread). A shoutout to them will not help them or us. All it does is create anxiety and a rising post count and attention for the OP.

This is cluttering up the forums and spreading out the discussion. As this is intentional I'd go as far and call it spam. I hate spam!
