I received the following this morning, 9/23/14:

I clicked on the first link to verify, only I misplaced my serial #. I can furnish anything, except that, to show it’s my account. Weird thing is, I’m unable to log-in to my support account, but can in to my account, which is where I got the following:
AcaciaAVE.5914 – acct name
current login IPs
Authorized Networks
I even have a transaction # from an email sent to from purchasing in-game gems, months ago.
So please I would appreciate what I need to do to stop this shutdown?
TY

It’s a hoax to get you to submit your account credentials. We don’t send warnings.
Are you able to please send me the purchase info, via email like before? And ty for getting back to me so quick.
If you wish to purchase the game, you can do so at this site: http://buy.guildwars2.com/store/gw2/en_US/html/pbPage.buyguildwars2
You may need to change the region, of course.
If you mean you want the serial key sent to you, again, after your previous purchase, you would need to contact CS. Top of Page – Support – Submit a Request.
Good luck.
I clicked on the first link to verify, …
If you put any information at all into that page you clicked on I would highly suggest you change your password, and your email password. That link probably took you to a hoax website that was trying to get your login information.
That is most definitely a phishing e-mail. If you put your log-in or any personal information into any forms that the e-mail may have linked you to, please submit a ticket to our support site (linked below) and ask for an account name change. Select “Account Issue” from the drop-down menu for this particular case. You’ll need to supply us with an e-mail address that has never been associated with your Guild Wars 2 account before as well.
Additionally, ensure that the password to your e-mail account is not the same as the password to your Guild Wars 2 account; individuals who send these types of e-mails usually attempt to log in to the e-mail account first with the information that players provide to steal it in an attempt to better gain control over an account.
You should remove your email address from the above post..
