Phishing alert
Plato
Dear citizens,
Once again we want to remind you: always double-check links you received from someone else before and AFTER you clicked on them and avoid installing scripts.
You can encounter links in many places, like private messages (PMs), shouts, articles, forum posts, etc. It is very important that any link you are about to click starts with “www.erepublik.com/”. EXACTLY LIKE THAT. If the link contains only random characters (e.g. links shorteners like tinyurl.com or bit.ly), verify the address the link opens. The easiest way to protect yourself is to be careful!
SCENARIO: You have logged in to eRepublik, you receive a PM with a link to an interesting article, you click the link, and then for some strange reason “eRepublik” asks you to log in again. Well, this is suspicious, isn't it? Double-check the address bar! The slight difference between the genuine and the fake eRepublik (phishing site) will become visible. You just need to look carefully and make sure that the address starts with "www.erepublik.com/".
Apart from fake sites, there is another way of giving away your login details: scripts. There are many scripts out there which have only one purpose: to steal your username and your password. Of course, they promise you Gold, weapons, houses, and many other things; but once you installed the script you soon might find yourself in the “I've been hacked, my GOLD is gone, heeeeelp!” situation.
The responsibility of keeping sensitive information safe belongs solely to you, as stated in the our Terms of Service (ToS) . Let's work together to keep eRepublik safe! Again, please be careful where you give away private data; do not share your password! Do not install scripts or add-ons!
If you encounter the situation that you cannot log in to eRepublik for more than 24 hours, please send an email to support[at]erepublik[dot]com from the email address that you used to create your eRepublik account.
Regards,
The eRepublik team
