Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone, i’m back playing GW2 again i missed allot of things but that’s OK.

wlcome, please never engage in any discussion about balance on these forums

Hey, I missed you. Next time I’ll be sure to to use Headshot with my bow =P

Welcome back, I recently came back about a month ago, left for about 5 months or so because I was playing lots of single player games.

I’ve got a problem, I used to play WoW after few months i was unactive so i decided to check my Hotmail inbox and than i found Battle.net witch is a fake e-mail i clicked on it ’’dumb’’ and than i logged into battle.net witch the site was exactly the same as the real one i logged in than it says you couldn’t login Ip blocked or something like that so after few days i checked my inbox again and the real battlenet send me an e-mail witch say’s my account has been blocked for ‘’@!$#’’ i bought wow again and went on my account i found that my account was cleaned up every single piece that was trade able was gone. So now my question is i checked my inbox and found ‘’Guild wars 2’’ so i’m worry’d to click on it it can happen like my WoW account so my whooooole story is just to ask,

how can i recognize a real ArenaNet E-mail?

I know some of you are lazy to read or say ‘’true story Brah’’ but i really need help!

Let me be the first to call you dumb. Now that formalities are done with.

The way I find out is when you hover over a link in the email, at the bottom, which is the status bar, it will show you what that link is. If it has something like www.arena.net/gw2/something here, it’s usually good. But if it’s something like www.arena.go.somebullkittenhere.somethingelsehere.net, it’s usually fake.

To be safe, just don’t click links.

Example 1: Link 1

Example 2: Link 2

Well, as you said in your example ’’url’’ you named it ’’link’’ witch i can’t see the link if its. This e-mails are professional written the the link you clicked is exactly the same as www.guildwars2.com they can easily change it like you did in stead of Link they just do Guilwars2 and i already found how to find it the best way to check the e-mail from who you receive it, i used to check on Hotmail but its Outlook now. this is the real e-mail of ArenaNet ‘’guildwars2@ncsoft.com’’ and got supriced that i found also the fake one omg withc is this one ‘’noreply@guildwars.com’’ want to see how the e-mail look like ?

ANet doesn’t send your account emails specific to you unless you contact them first and they are responding. Any emails you will get from them are notifications of the new patches and it won’t be something you can respond to. Any email that tells you there is something wrong with your account and that gives you a link to respond to is a phishing email. Read (this) to see samples of phishing emails.

Thanks, the link you’ve send was useful.

Yw. :-)
