Player tried to scam me with false link.

[CornishDinosaur]

Hello all! I realised I was being scammed and have changed my password, so just wanted to put out a warning to everyone. I've already reported the user and the page, but wanted to warn everyone who might have recieved a /tell as well.

I was in Ishgard and got a /tell from (another player), announcing they were quitting and were doing a 300 million gil raffle on the forums. The link, of course, went to fake copy of the forums and the thread, "300M Gil Raffle", by the fake user "Ahnthistik" who was showing the fake character "Problematic Fav" from "Omega", is naturally designed to make you want to click that log in button at the top right.

multiple fake profiles in the comments, as proven by them 404ing if you try to view said profiles, are abound, however the Moderater account "Enkrateia", which has also commented, is legitimate and has had false comments inserted to make the fake page look more legitimate.

Apologies for the full-size screenshot, I wanted to leave no doubt I'm being honest and this seemed the simplest way.
