http://imgur.com/CL9qDUKHey guys, I just recived a Email regarding missed notifications sent from "Automation Support"(

Obviously its a spam/scam but I figured you guys should now about it. It went straight to my spamfolder, others may not be as lucky.

Thanks for sharing this. Might be useful for people to know before they get scammed.

Huh, that's strange. Not sure there is anything we can do to stop it though, as it's not coming from any of our servers.

Maybe contact the provider they email from and get that email blocked or something?

It doesn't even mention anything related to us besides the word Automation though does it? Which makes it difficult to claim it's about us.

I'm inclined to think it wasn't meant to be about this game at all.Rather I think what it meant "automated support".

Isn't the name "Automation" copyrighted by you guys?

The mailing address belongs to an automated translation company, so my guess is that it is a curious coincidence.

Automation is a pretty industrial word. Copyrighting that would be impossible. Some weeks ago i did automation at work - Simatic S7.
