 Here are some sample of scam pm/s that we're aware of. If you do receive one, please DO NOT answer and report it asap. Here are some example of Scam PM's    Remember, Admins/Moderators or any gaia staff will never ask some information about your gaia account, especially your e-mail and password. If someone send a pm to you like that or even not but if the user is asking information about your account, and telling you, that your account will be blocked, if you dont answer the following, dont be scared or be afraid, because nothing will happen to your account, they are just trying to get the golds and items in your account. Just report them as soon as possible.Example Of Pop-Up Scam: Dont believe in that thing, if that happen to you, just ignore it because thats not true, it just trying to get and to hack your account. So BEWARE. It always happen in the Admin Lead Profile.

I just got one today.
It took me to a fake login screen.
And my fraud alerts didn't warn me I was going off site.
I can't turn them on now.
I made all necessary reports.

I just got one about a half hour ago...I clicked away from this guild and it took me to a different page with my avatar, a login, and all the Gaia functions, but it didn't look anything like the Gaia homepage...Thanks for the other warnings, though. It really shows that you need to be more careful around here.....

I've gotten the second one.
:3
Also the 'Give me your password for such-and-such gold' ones are quite frequent.

 ...Just keep a little magic in your heart... I got one of the second one on my main account just yesterday. It was funny because I knew it was someone trying to hack me, but I still wanted to reply to the message to tell them off. I resisted, but I'd have loved to give them a piece of my mind! Posting a quote of it in the journals is a good idea; get the word around!
And here's something that's always made me chuckle: why would the admins of Gaia, who theoretically would be sending you the message, need your username? Duh. X_X These spammers need to get another hobby seeing as they suck at this one. ...And you will be forever young...
