Attempted Account Theft

[MordredAlixander]

Got an MSN friend add from a [email protected].

He started talking to me about how I apparently sent him a bunch of empty PMs, and asked me to contact site devs about it. Do so, tell him, get an email asking me to send my account name and password to [email protected] because of database problems. Funny how it's to a yahoo account and not an ownedcore account...

Tell him I sent the admins an email asking to verify the email by including the word Seesaw in it. Never actually sent this email, but lo and behold I get an email with the word in it. Called him on it and he went offline.

It's an obvious and easily seen through scam, but figured I would post it here anyway just to let everyone know.

Convo log for kicks

---And the email

Dear Ownedcore Member,
We had some problems with our database,fact which made us lose some information from the account table in database.

In order to prevent an automatically delete of the account,please send an email to our dev team [email protected] with your username and password,
so the developers will be able to replace them.

Your account will get fixed as soon as we receive the email.

Also,report if you found any bugs.

All the best,
OwnedCore - World of Warcraft Exploits, Hacks, Bots and Guides

Ah, those spam emails. But... what this guy do with stolen accounts, is any worth?

Probably just wanted donator access? *Shrug* He did go above and beyond a simple spam email though, will give him that.
