Guild Wars 2

I dont share the fact that a particular email address is associated to my guidwars account, so how am I being targetted everyday with scam emails?

What is really concerning is that I stopped playing the game for about 6 months, and the emails stopped, but immediately began again when I logged into guildwars.

I have no viruses, and even if I did I cant imagine why they would be made purposefully to phish for my guildwars credentials, while I play so many other games, have paypal and bank accounts, et cetera.

I am not confident my information is secure with arenanet.

It goes in waves.
Sometimes you get loads of them, sometimes none at all.
I have personally got these kinds of mails from “Blizzard”, “ArenaNet”, and countless others, even though I only really play games from ArenaNet.

They send mails at random, and hope that the targets happen to play said game.
They might also do it less random by using mails found at pages that are discussing MMOs and/or specific games.

Anet servers are safe. They’re not responsible for a player’s PC security, or lack there of. So if you were to get hacked, instead of blaming others, perhaps you should look within.
