Another ploy by account stealers?
Remember everyone: NCSoft and Arenanet will never send you an e-mail personally (unless you reported something and they're replying) in which case they'll use grammar and it won't be sent to your junk email box :P.
Merry Christmas anyway, and don't lose your account in a festive frenzy!
EDIT: Oh, and there's no way I'm opening it.
Suspicious or what?

Posting images with your email address displayed in is a good way to get more mail like that.

NCsoft is spelled with a small "s". Also, thread name is lower case. Sure as hell it's a scam.

Actually I'd like to see what the email says, got a couple emails from Valve regarding my steam account deletion or pending ban, and they needed my password to check any 'anomalies' I always laugh at that.

Don't show your email adress in public like that. Also to minimise the chance of brute force hacking attacks, players should setup a complex password. This means at least 8 characters long with normal and capitals, numbers and special signs in it.

Wow. What a scam. NCsoft wouldn't do a thread in lowercase (If they e-mailed you about a report you sent.) like Abedeus said.

Its not even in text form, its in an image.
If someone really wanted to brute his account they would have done it by now, no one is gunna waste their time bruting a random account.
Come to think of it, why did you even post that? its not even relevant to the thread, you act is if someone is gunna brute their account so they can read that email
OT: Open it, screenshot. You're not gunna get a virus from opening an email, and if you do, switch to a different host. Jeez, the stupidy of people these days, which is even sadder because they think they're being smart by being "cautious"

Just before posting the image I thought: "Is there anything in this picture there shouldn't be?". E-mail address is removed now, but tbh, they already know it, so I'm not losing sleep over it.
I wonder how they got it though...
Oh well.
Also, the content doesn't interest me, I know it's just a scam.

The info about the complex password is something I have to tell workers on a daily basis as a lot of people have their password written on their forehead sorta speak. Wanne decrease the chance of getting hacked, using a complex password helps.
That's why. |

But I still say it is a scam as, if I remember correctly, Anet and NCsoft doesn't delete accounts, they just perma ban them.
If you are that curious as to what might be in it, get on a old computer or a library computer or something and open it there.
Don't do that! Some rapper wanna-be that plays GW has an accont and password that!

Bwahaha! Now I know one of his e-mail addresses!
Now I can mildly annoy him!
Get a grip, guys. It's not a social security number.
