[How to] Fail

[Endbringer]

Recently I recieved a scam mail about selling my account at such sides... well, it was a fail and I decided to make a guide why it failed; lets start:

1st: the mail was sent from a "[email protected]"

Problems caused:
- why would someone reply to [email protected]?

Solution: use some other false mail like [email protected]

2nd: the mail was send to multiple accounts at once
Problems caused:
- blizzard doesn't do that -> people won't trust you
- someone knows it's a scam and mails others (like it happened here)
- you give other scamers list of e-mails (I'm not complaining about that)

Solution: don't send to multiple e-mails at once

If I come up with more stuff, I'll let you all know.:wave:
(my first guide, be gentle:P)

I don't get why this is here, isn't this the scam section? Not the fail scam section.

/facepalm

The [email protected] email should be used with a phisher, Unless you can intercept Blizzard SMTP then I don't think you'd have any luck otherwise.

you did read, what i wrote there, did you?
i /facepalmed the first second i recived that mail...

I don't get why this is here, isn't this the scam section? Not the fail scam section.

Why would anyone ever use [email protected] ? At least have a decency to use [email protected].
