New RMT method of account hijacking?

[AneyuS]

ADMIN: IF YOU GET YOUR ACCOUNT STOLEN BY GOING TO THAT URL YOU DESERVE LOSING IT


I just got this tell about 5 minutes ago, and as you can see from the chat log, so have other people.

Has this happened on other servers besides Garuda yet?

[Cairthenn]

This isn't new.

[AneyuS]

Not new as in "This has never happened before" but new as in "Don't go to this specific URL if you get this tell" new

[Shuemue]

Old as the hills

[Shuemue]

This method isn't new, regardless of url, and anyone that falls for it deserves to lose their shit.

[Tubbers]

These never get to me, I think they usually get banned after H or so. They happen fairly often though.

[VivixKujata]

Now that I think about it, I got one of these a long time ago.. like 2-3 months probably. Old.

olde as ye olde, this is how makochild lost his account eons ago

edit: when I say olde, I mean like, CoP was new olde

[Thistle]

I never get these messages. Guess they get banned long before they get to the T-names.

[zoobernut]

I have never gotten one of these messages... guess they never feel like mixing it up and starting from the bottom of the alphabet.

Didn't visit a link either sent to me back in 2006. Person sent out messages while /away and was swiftly dealt with

This happened to my friend a little over a year ago. My friend got a tell from someone with a url, and was stupid enough to check it out. Then the next day his mule, which i knew was his, was sending out the /tells.

[Kaisha]

Do you figure we'll see these becoming more and more common as they start to exploit the free trials for throw-away ad-bots/gil-mules?

[evilpaul]

In before a mod finally removes the keylogger URL from the OP.

[vagus]

Someone needs to do a reverse on this thing and hack some rmT accounts. lol.

Found inside the app:

ffxiserver77.no-ip.org which resolves to 70.16.103.165
