Advance Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I got this in my mail today FROM:<[email protected]> This message from Nintendo of Europe is to give you some STARS!!!! Please click on the link below to receive your stars. http://www.nintendo-europe.com/NOE/en/GB/home/index.do?dsource=emailTest&userId=%2FpWG7tvluhM55M0TZXlYGK29becHtciN If you have received this message in error, please delete it. You will receive no further correspondence from Nintendo. Please do not reply to this message. I don;t thrust it since the email adress isn't one of nintendo, and two i don't have a vip account or club account by nintendo UK but by nintendo Benelux
Shorty Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 When you mouseover the link, does it actually point to Nintendo of europe? For example, I could do this: http://www.n-europe.com/forums But really, what's the worst that can happen? Even if it's phishing you're not gonna be dumb enough to put your bank account details in, right?
4q2 Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Looks safe to me... Plus if you do a little investigation you will find this: http://www.blastradius.com/who/article.jsp?id=363&type=3
Rummy Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I posted about this as it was happening the MPotD thread but no one said anything. In my emails to my hotmail account, the link wasnt linked like, so I tried copy and pasting(I have like 6 of the emails, each with a different code each time), but it wouldnt finish loading, wouldn't even get a page cannot be displayed error...
Jasper Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 I got that same email yesterday, three times... It's a conspiracy! Nintendo is trying to kill us all! Or trick us into giving our credit card information so they can rip us of by sending us five Wii's we do'nt need and some stock of GameCube that they had to clear out. No seriously, check here: http://www.engadget.com/Nintendo_emails_to_clear_out-GameCube_Stock_early . Briliant. EDIT: they seem to have deleted the page...
