Guild Wars 2

I just received an in-game mail stating that my account will be shut down due to currency transactions?

I went to the link, and it asked me to verify my account with serial number. Unfortunately, I deleted the email with the serial number. Is there any other way to verify this or is this simply a scam? This is the first notification I’ve ever received from an ANET dev if it truly is ANET that sent this message. Please help.

Thanks,

this is a scam. ANet mails always have the ANet logo on them and never contain links. if a mail says it is sent by a player, it is a scam.

If you look at the email you’ll see the message in yellow at the bottom where it says it’s from another player and not ANet.
