FezzikVizzini✭✭✭Huge concern ? With all the other bugs etc and this is all that bothers you ?
Just delete them and move on. No big deal.Yeah, I got a PC. I just don't feel the need to post it's specifications for an ego boost.0 -
ijRoberts✭✭✭Would be nice if they put in an option to only receive mail from guild members or people on your friend's list. That would solve the spam mail issue.0

No hack, they lurk around the banks looking for player names. You can easily spot (and report!) them right there.madeskimo_ESO wrote: »now recieving in game mail from gold spammers who somehow have managed to hack game and have account names all with out giving them our game info.Huge concern as to why they can mail anyone in game even if the account is brand new.

ijRoberts✭✭✭Yeah, I'm sorry, but did you think you were invisible? You know all those bots you can see? They can see you, too.2

Auric_ESO✭✭✭✭They haven't been hacked so far as we've seen or heard. They are just getting your name though chat and sending emails to people."The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish the spirit." Morihei Ueshiba0 -
Evandus✭✭✭✭No, not just chat.
If you open mail with the intent to send something, the recipient shows names. It's not difficult to start with 'A' and work your way up.1 -

What in the world are you talking about? I am guessing English is not your primary language.
As it has been stated before, they did NOT hack your account. If you have used chat or they have just saw you standing around in a city, they can send mail to you.
Again, no hacking involved...THAT is why no one is concerned.

They didn't hack anything. You can get an entire list of account names via this forum and the user pages. It's sequential ids, so you can just scrape all the @names you want.0 -

I think you are right. I signed in 3 days ago, and I have got spam in-game mail since then. I think it's a great mistake to give acces to full user names list.

Auric_ESO✭✭✭✭Well if they didn't then there'd be people complaining that the email system isn't easy enough to use. Fixing the bottling problem in other ways would fix this problem."The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish the spirit." Morihei Ueshiba0
