Beware: new phishing attempts

[Rehayem]

They put a warning about these phishing attempts every time you log in.

Yes, but the previous tells were linking directly to the fake forums. These new attempts are meant to lure you into a trusted website (like Twitch) to fool unsuspected people who may not be that tech savvy or understand it's all a facade.

The in-game warning says, "If you receive a Tell containing a URL to a website from a random player, please check the contents carefully since there is a high possibility that it is a phishing site." Which covers every case. Going even further than that, they link to a lodestone post that gives several examples, including the one OP is talking about. All of the information is there every time you log in if people bother to read.
