It's happening again.. This time with my name being abused. Please look out for PM's from me. Take a look at my name in the quotebox above. Upper case I looks like lower case L in IRC. I know Kung already suffered from this earlier... Just a heads up guys. We're being attacked by phishers again.

Please always make sure when you get links from ANYBODY that you can get a confirmation on what the link is or who the person is.. If not, don't open the link.

Refer to Aragons post below on how to work against phishing:

QUOTE

Recently there has been a few phishing links going around in IRC. To prevent your nickname from being stolen, EVERYBODY should type this once connected and identified on IRC:

/ns set kill quick

You will get a message that looks like:

[12:18 PM] -NickServ- Protection is now ON, with a reduced delay.

Lordy has typed it, now nobody will be able to send phishing links as if they change their nickname to His_Lordship, it will change to Anonymous#'s after a few seconds without being identified.

This will help prevent phishing/scamming links in the future.

All i can say is the number 1 cure for this problem is using a little common sense, and I'm sorry, but if you lack it, that's your own problem.

I mean like seriously, why would Dallar be sending us a pm about a private server? (And yes, i received the same PM)
