Guild Wars 2

I have today received a mail from “NC Soft” regarding upgrading to the Deluxe Edition, but it was in my spam mail, as it looks like phishing.

The header showed: guildwars2@ncsoft.com via bluehornet.com
What I don’t like is, it’s send to the mail used to buy GW2, but that mail has not been used with anything else regarding GW2.

Has bluehornet.com anything to do with Guild Wars 2 ?

Bluehornet.com is owned by Digital River ie the emarketing company that NCSoft uses.

Then I am painstakingly wrong. If bluehornet is associated with guild wars 2, then it would be fine to open the email.

. . . Seriously?

Seriously just do a DNS lookup on it the owner is digitalriver.com. Digital River is the ecommerce emarketing people that a lot of companies use for their downloadable games. Some of the beta emails were sent via bluehornet it redirects to NCSofts website but lets them track how effective the emails are.

EDIT: For anyone wondering here’s where I got the info from who.is link is HERE

If in doubt never click on a link but I don’t think digital river would be trying to phish us. You can of course just go to ncsoft,gw2 etc directly

NP Some of the beta emails had the same info and people asked about it on Reddit.

While NCSoft may not use digitalriver they are a pretty reputable company as I’ve heard of them before in relation to online purchases of reputable titles.
