Just want to let you know there is an e-mail being sent from 'zyngasuport@17920, stating that accounts have been hacked and asking we click on a link provided. Both I and my son got this, just wondering has anyone else. Needless to say I did not click the link. I know this is off topic, but I don't want it to get missed.

How did they get your email address? Anyway, thanks for letting us know. My email address is hidden from everyone so unless your email address is public, IDK how they would get it.

lol well the game is no longer owned by Zynga so the email is clearly a fake.. Probably a phishing site :geek:

I think he is just laughing at how much of a poor effort this is at retrieving important information from our computers. I never click links or open attachments.. Be careful! :geek:

That it is obviously poor effort on the people trying to get the information, considering they put Zynga. I would think that was obvious by my post. :lol:

what the?! LOL I hope no one is clueless enough to click something like that. Good grief. Even if it had bvg in the address...people REALLY need to look more closely at emails before opening them. -_-

Seems a little troubling that they were able to find your email in the first place.
