Default WTF...

just got log in to gaia right now..and guess what i recieve a message goes like this


Quote:
Hello, this is an auto message sent to you from the admin because your account has been reported for:
attempted hacking, scamming, trolling, and life threatening

Our reports are never 100% accurate but we need to run a quick review of your account, checking the trade, and marketplace history,and all you have to do is fill this form out,

username:

password:

email address:

Usually admins never ask for your password but for serious cases like this we have no choice.

ATTENTION!
We are very careful and want to make sure you are safe, this is the reason this message pops up. BUT, your case is very rare, and in these cases we have no choice but for you to fill the form, It is very important you understand this.

NOTICE!
If you do not complete this form and return, it will resolve in a 6 month ban and banning of the IP power.

So does it came from here...guess not..this way of scamming is too old..it wouldnt be too obvious if you use emails..make a email add ex. gaiaadmin@y.c and send it to thier email add..

My guess is that this that is a load of Bull shit, because admin dont need your password to see your trading.

Therefore

Hehe, I agree with Blaze.
And was it a pm?
If so, then couldn't you see if the user was an admin or not?
