Protect Your Free Realms Account!!!

The official FreeRealms site posted an article today about protecting your FreeRealms account. Apparently there has been some "phishing" going on and they want to make sure you know how to protect your account.

Here's what they have to say


Greetings!

There is a serious phishing scam being perpetrated right now that can seriously compromise your account security. We have heard reports that scammers are sending emails claiming that your password has been changed. They may ask you to log into a fake website to ‘update’ your account in an attempt to steal your login information.

If you are careful about a few simple rules, you will keep all your information safe.

1: Free Realms and SOE employees will never ask you for your password! Never. Not even once.

2: When logging into our Customer Service web site, please double check the URL of the site that you are being asked to access. The legitimate webpage will have this URL: https://auth.station.sony.com. Please do not enter your information on any other site, as it is not secure.

The full link looks like this:
https://auth.freerealms.com/login?service=http://www.freerealms.com/j_acegi_cas_security_check&theme=freerealms&existing=true&locale=en_US
If you feel that your account may have been compromised, please contact a Referee immediately.
