Subject: Security Alert

It has been brought to our attention that someone is sending fake emails form "bungie.com" (we're actually Bungie.net and we never email you about your account details or security.) and we have to assume the sender of the mails, often with a zip file attachment, is up to no good. Simply delete and ignore them and never, ever open a file from a sender you don't know or trust.

Wow, that looks real, but if I got a Email from them, I'll just reply with some of my SPAM mail I get, and tell them to go get a life, that is stupid.

wow frankie is moving up in the world quickly. First an editor at oxm, then content monkey at bungie and now security at bungie, way to go frankie!

But in all seriousness, i think someone who gets one of these emails should www.neotrace.com it and see where the source is so that you can get them back.

Heh word must have gotten out that bnet visitors are easy scam targets. It's obvious from the amount of groups that go down because people give out passwords and security roles.

What a world we live in. I haven't gotten any E-mails like that, or from Bungie.net altogether.

Btw, did anyone else notice the spelling mistake in the summary? It says 'form" instead of 'from'

(10:19:49 PM) Scruss: oh and pezza, i saw what you did to that cat
(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

The real question is, what kind of -blam!- -blam!-s would do a thing like this?
