Constant in-game spam mail from gold sellers.

#1 - Oct. 10, 2012, 11:06 p.m.

I play several times a week and every time I log on my mail box contains 3-5 letters from players selling gold. I report every one of these for gold selling so that’s covered, but I am concerned about the security of my account. I have received one verification email and had to change my account name to another email that I don’t use that often and since then my account has not had any threats to its security as far as I can see. I have not received a verification email since then. Could the gold sellers have found a way to target me because of this? Is it a common thing for players to receive in-game spam mail or has anyone else had the same problem?

Hi Ferny.

JunkyardWolf is right. Besides, users have been notifying a decrease in the number of gold seller emails that they receive. So we would ask you to just keep on reporting and then deleting them, as this is the best way to help us.

Thank you very much.

Hi Sahfur.

We already stated that you won´t get banned for accepting that 1 copper (hey, a copper is a copper!) but alternatively you can return the message to the sender. In any case, make sure you report the fellow who sent it to you.

You might be encouraged to know that on Tuesday, we blocked more than 3,000 bots. We are actively dealing with this issue and the team has a lot of other plans to address these issues, so I believe you will see a substantial improvement soon.
