CCP Navigator just released the following statement, warning EVE players...
There is currently a phishing email circulating that claims to be sent from EVE Customer Support. This email claims that we had a database issue and lost some customer information and it asks you to login to make sure your information is still there. They conveniently provide their very own login link. This is of course not true; we have not lost any account information.
We'd also like to add that our knowledge when it comes to English grammar and spelling is far better than what is in the phishing email.
So if you play EVE, be careful when you check your email. While these sort of piracy attempts are used against many MMO players, it seems like EVE is being attacked over and over recently. You can read the original post here at MyEVE. Also something worthy of note, almost ALL developers will NEVER ask for your password or for you to login into the game due to "database" issues.
Even if you get a message that seems legitimate, verify your sources. Go to the game's homepage and make sure this is the case.
