I wasn't sure where I should put this thread so I apologize in advance if it's in the wrong spot.
About a week ago one of my friends had his account information stolen. A few days after it happened, I found the person
who now has the account. He told me he didn't take it but after some tests I came to the conclusion that he indeed was not
my friend and he did take the account. Further on in our conversation, this person told me that he was able to obtain a
certain about of CE through a website. I did some research on the website and found out that it is a website created by
someone either playing Spiral Knights or who is just familiar with the game. I learned that the website is offering free CE
and Crowns, all you have to do is "fill out a survey that contains questions about your account information. "Once the
information is filled out this person or group of people is then able to access your account and change the password.
I'm sure that a lot of you know it is not wise to give out any information related to your account but as a new player free
stuff is tempting. I am posting this as a warning to everyone just to let you all know that there are people out there who
will try to get your information.
Please be careful about the information you share and try to stay away from sites that you're unsure of.
I wasn't sure what the best way was to go about sharing this information and I don't think anything can really be done.
Just be careful and play safe.
Best regards,
The one and only, Guardianknight.
Also the programs that you download for infinite CE or infinite crowns that 'require your username and password so the free money program can log you in and generate your instant wealth' (or whatever the exact text is, I'm not dumb enough to run one) ... ahem, those are also just traps to steal your account.
Also anything else that asks for your username and password is just a trick to steal your account. There's no genuine service out there that needs your username and password.
