IMPORTANT: Free money hack — Don't fall for it!

Never give your Second Life account password to anyone, any site, any telemarketer or any other being (living, dead, undead or “other”) ever. Like, never ever. Never ever ever ever ever.

Have I made myself clear? Good. It’s come to our attention that a number of residents in relatively good standing are spamming open chat with the following:

Hot new LINDEN HACK/CHEAT!! Will give anyone 1 month or older to the game 10,000 L$ FOR EVERY 30 MINUTES SPENT OFFLINE!!! hteeteepee:\\LindenHack.citymax.com\! Limited time hack! Register and start recieveing now!
(address above deliberately made less linky to protect you all!)
Do not fall for this blatant attempt to get your password! The site is a password phishing attack. The less-than-scrupulous individual will log into your account, take all your money and then make your account a spam bot.

Phishing sites always ask you for a user name and password and usually some other identifying information. They sometimes look like an official site of the organization or company they claim to be working with. However the web address in the browser’s address bar won’t always be correct and should be suspicious.

Just remember: don’t ever give your account password out to anyone!

If you believe you have been victim of this please contact support@lindenlab.com immediately. It is strongly suggested that you change your password immediately if you did give it out.
