Remove the links from the quote. It's against the rules to post links of that nature.

there are millions of fake e-mails going around. And it's sad to hear that the "not so much experienced"-players sometimes fall for the scams..

But me mental is true you must never, never post a link to a scamming site.

And the other one is exactly as you said it... although it claims to be something else, not "Stupid Town". But I'm guessing you, or a mod changed that. I won't display the name here unless you want me to and it is OK'ed by a mod.

i think that the person sending the "scammer" e-mails is someone that goes to this site and gets e-mail adresses from their profile...but that's just one thought

(heh, 69 posts :lol: )

I'm pretty sure it probably is someone on this site - I don't post on any other specific Runescape Forums.

Keep on the lookout guys. :wink:
