I got an e-mail from lyris-confirm-3094245J @listserv.plaync.com, title: Guild Wars account settings, with the question whether or not I wanted to receive updates on the game and such. The yes or no where links, and I dont really trust them.

Anyone else got this message? Or should I e-mail A-net to ask them if this is correct?

Looks like it would be valid with the plaync.com...not sure 100% sure tho. Dunno why they'd email you to ask about updates...

yeah, well what I am wondering about is that the plaync.com is followed by an A-net emblem (not that that should be hard to aquire anywhere). But if nobody else has seen the e-mail, I dont think it's valid. Why would they only ask me about it?

Yes, i received these emails too... for each account one (2 accounts and 1 for an account i created for factions preview weekend). Not sure what to do with them (i see too many phising (?) emails lately).

You would think, especially if it is genuine they would not tell you to follow a link in an email, with all the scam emails that go around

Personally I deleted it

Don't even waste your time, it seems everyone is getting those scam emails.

its not a scam. if you click on it, you get to the guildwars.com with a message, that you have succesfully updated your plaync account, and you will recieve game update notes to your e-mail address

Yes I had the same for my 2 accounts, but I did not reply and deleted the e-mails after I did not find anything on the GW web site.
Too late for me!
