Jagex email - Password Recovery

[TheLad1]

I don't know if I'm super jumpy & the below is an attempted hack or whether it is actually from Jagex. As far as I know, I've not asked for my account to be recovered (albeit the Password Recovery link is just below the log in button , I may have misclicked).

 

I've not clicked on any of the links.

 

It doesn't look right so to me - so I thought I'd better check with the experts.

 

 

Dear Player,

 

This is an automated email from Jagex Ltd., makers of RuneScape and FunOrb, sent because someone has submitted a Password Recovery request for this account.

Alternatively, copy this security code into your Account Recovery form: ejZLJqV1riLk8JuhpimFIJdZbnDPMM

 

Your security code will expire at 30-October-2011 23:54 (official forum time).

 

If you did not submit this account recovery request, and you think that someone might be attempting to hijack your account, you can let us know by completing the form at http://www.runescape.com/loginapplet/loginapplet.ws?mod=accountappeal&dest=invalidate.ws

 

Many thanks,

One of the many scam mails going around atm.

 

I suggest making a separate e-mail account for your RS account (and not use it for anything else) with a name urelated to your RSN. That should do the trick, and make your account a lot safer. :)

Thanks for the advice, I'll set up a new e-mail address just for RS.

You're more than welcome. :)

 

E-mail is the best way to recover accounts aswell (as I have painfully learnt when my e-mail account was stolen a few years ago), so it is a double security.
