I bought a game on steam yesterday and I got an email from "[email protected]" that said
I am sorry to inform you that we have caught your credit card number online...Yo have 3 days to cncel it before we empty it..nothing personal...
:o :o
Has anyone got an email like this before? I hope it's just spam, the date is wednesday but I bought the game yesterday (thursday). Could the date be messed up because of time zones or something? I use gmail....
-
It most likely wouldent be caused by the game.
What is the EXACT message?
-
That's the exact message, I copy/pasted it. It's from "Max Turno". Google didn't turn anything up, I was thinking maybe if it was a common spam thing I would be able to find something about it...
-
oh my
do you have your credit card on your Pc?
-
What do you mean "on my pc"?

What do you mean "on my pc"?
like is your information on your PC?

Like in a text file? Nothing like that...

Being as you dont, I dont see any way which they could do that.
Not to mention, if someone wanted your money, the bank account would be empty by now... why would they allow a mercy period?
-
First of all, the message said "We have caught your credit card number online." If you have made any on-line purchases with your credit card, they could've gotten it. Did no-one else catch that? Or am I wrong?
But having said that, it sounds like some jerk-wad spamming. [email protected]? Mercy period? Is this a real-life gentleman thief out of the movies? Come on.

Ok I have confirmed this to be fake because of the date, and also because of this:

The line "X-Source-Dir: hg.elementfx.com:/public_html/fake" leads to http://hg.elementfx.com/fake/. Panic has subsided :)

Also make sure whenever you're submitting any personal information online that you're on an SSL page: noted by https://
Also make sure the site you're visiting has a valid security certificate, as well.
You can never be too safe.

Yes, but not necessary.
I'm saying contact the host of the site and report them... allowing users to easily scan through an exploitable script is a bad idea.

They even have a web site discussing how to hack anything. Credit Cards, PayPal accounts etc.

I'll contact the admin tomorrow...
