Thanks Gill and Abigale. Hopefully things will get smoothed out soon with all this.

Yes, I have been received 2 private tells from a user Riftd. He told me to re-register on a site, called so that I can get free mount. That site is still on and it requires you to have password and account ID and secret question. Can you guys ban this guy and shut down that site. It is a scam

These are the more disturbing ones. They can make the URL's pretty damn close to the real one, and the sites can look exactly the same due to directly ripped HTML code. if someone's not careful enough to notice the subtle differences in what you posted, they can get stung pretty bad.

Stuff like rift-game.tiroinworlds.co.ch is pretty obvious, but if someone's not careful enough to notice the subtle differences in what you posted, they can get stung pretty bad.

Yes. I wanted a free mount very badly and put all my info there. I realized later and changed my password. Not sure if that would make my account safe again. That riftd told me the original special early bird program had been extended and if I registered the site again, I could get free mount. They know, we need these mounts badly and try to trick us. Very easy to be victim these days.

Run malware/virus/etc scanners as well, I'd recommend you include the UnhackMe program that's been going around on the forum too. Chances are, the fake sites they set up are a cesspool for keyloggers and other nasty things. You may not even need to log in to get those, if they're particularly infested.

https:// means it's http over SSL. In other words, it's a secure connection that goes through a certificate authority most of the time.

It should be if you bookmarked it when you were on the site to begin with. A way to be absolutely sure is to start by going to https://rift.trionworlds.com and go from there, it'll take you to your account page.
