Spoofing via mail

People are now using in-game mail to request items from other players, using names that look like well known, high level players.
IF you send items to anyone, via in-game mail - be sure to check their class and level before hitting send.
Use your clan or friends list instead of the area list, or replying to the original sender - just in case.
Also, there is no such thing as an Infection Bank - even if there were, we wouldn't be asking people outside the clan to put things there. Don't fall for it!

When u do... If they have a lowercase L in their name, and ask for your stuff... Be suspicious

Thanks for the heads up. Apparently there's been someone going around making fake clan banks. Kind of annoying if you ask me.

I am not sure this is the work of noobs...
They are extremely good at guessing what ppl have in their inventory

Better start looking into your own clan if they are guessing so well

Just to remind u all that sunshinee made a post on the forums selling that same item so anyone who is on the forums knew about it. For the other items they have always asked for items we actively use like aggy bracelets that are always used so its easy to see them wearing it. Nobody is guessing at what they have they know because they can see what we have.
