ALERT: Scam Messages!
Hello there!
I come to warn about two accounts by the name of @SystemAlert1 and @SystemAlert2 have messaged me saying my account has been suspended, and that I should verify by clicking on a link that takes me to a place totally not suspicious to insert my credit card info to verify the account... As I'm typing this, I just got another message, this time from @SystemAlert9.
This person seems so desperate to scam someone that they can't even do it properly.
Thank you, and keep an eye out for scammers.
I just got one by SystemAlert7 as well!
Very nasty.
Thanks for making this post!
Looks like they've been banned!
I also got a similar scam message from "no-reply10" I have reported to the GC support team
I got an email from "no-reply 13" "Your account has been temporarily suspended. Complete the verification."
Easily debunked by separately logging into my account.
The "verification" link takes you to a domain called "accverification.world" They ask for credit card information right there on the page. SCAM!
Hello everyone, thank you for the reports. Please do not engage with the message you received in any way; it's a phishing scam attempt to collect your personal information.
If you did click the link, we definitely suggest changing your passwords to err on the side of caution and also suggest a virus and/or malware scan on your device. It's always best to play it safe.
In the future, if this happens, the best way to let us know about this is to email us at contact@globalcomix.com and we'll look into it. Thanks again for reporting it!
Mine came from GC Conversations and GlobalcomixTeam. Very legit looking, I only got suspicious when it asked for my credit card info.
@LucasPhelps - It's unlikely clicking a link alone could cause too much trouble. However, we would suggest that you make sure your accounts are secure by changing your password and running a scan on your device. Always best to play is safe.
