Hello SRF users... i got an email from Joymax saying that my account would be blocked if i didnt update my char information.

I dunno if this is a phishing site or not so i didn't fill nothing.
Here is a copy:

(i couldn't copy paste because so i took a screenshot.

Please Update your account information within 24 hours or your account will be banned.

To update your silkroad online account information please Click here :

http://www.joymax.com/portal/Joymax_Fro ... oymax.com/
If you click there it will go to that link but on the email it redirects here: http://users3.titanichost.com/joymax/ht ... =block.asp




The weirdest thing is that i have never done any of those things..
Please tell me if it's a phishing site or not.

The interesting thing is that none of those URLs seem fake. They're all http://*.joymax.com/*. But yeah, if it redirects to that shady site, obviously it's fake.
