I endend up getting a message like this a few weeks ago and I reported not even a minute after I got.

I've gotten quite a few of these that usually end in public humiliation via my journal. I once replied to one like this:

Username: Triforce-Kun
Password: ********: seriouslystoptrying@youfail.com

It was funny. I always block and report the people afterwards.

Well... I got one of those scam messages before... I posted it up here just because I had nothing else to do. xD;;

I also got a guild link a few days ago. It was from a friend of mine, or should I say FORMER friend, so I thought, "Why not join?" So I clicked the link to "Topic Guild." It logged me out, supposedly, so I looked at the web address. It read: ripway.com so I automatically thought: REPORTED.

In rally, there's a guy who scripts. Although scriptors are not hackers, this one was. He scripted a url to a fake log in page to gaia. Good thing rallys are all patched up. pirate

I have yet to get one of those letters, so I'm pretty thankful. I'm waiting for the day that one shows up in my PM inbox.

I'm really glad people have stopped sending me those kinds of scam PMs. They really get on my nerves.
