    Help I'm kinda scared yet think its a scam!

    So I got this e-mail in my mail box today and I donno if its a true e-mail from them or if its a scam and I don't need to stress. I was told though by a SE Support person Wednesday that my game is good to go on my PC for EA! Here is what the e-mail is.



    Here are other SE e-mails other than that 1



    The one compared to the others though seemed to be fake to me due to the fact that it says Square Enix and not SQUARE ENIX. Also the fact that I clicked their 'twitter' icon and it took me to twitter but it wasn't the FF14 EN twitter page. The E-mail with my code claimed it was eu but I was told by SE Support I'm good to go. So is this a scam or?

    The 'fake e-mail' the e-mail is typed as "noreply@email-square-enix.com"

    The real ones are "noreply@xmail.square-enix.com"

    Well I'm all set to go cause I never got the error about region issue. Also they need to fix their twitter link cause McAfee blocked that!

    When I receive an email with a link I don't click the link, but I hover my cursor over it so I can see the url, just to make sure. Half the time they end in .asia, .tk etc. etc. so I just hit the delete button

    its a scam 100%
    That is not a legit square domain
    The address your looking for is email.square-enix.com Notice the (period) and not a (dash) in between email and square? That signifies that it is a sub domain.
    if you went anywhere near that link i would change your passwords ASAP
    this is a fishing attempt and i suggest you inform as many people as possible

    might be next week, might be six months, but you were warned

    <noreply@email-square-enix.com>

    This is the same domain used by the newsletter mailer. Seems legitimate to me.

    Just re-quoting for those that tend to jump to conclusions.
