Using your credit card?

this might be a stupid question , but did you give out details to something not legit/posing legit or not well known ?

did it have any link to a play station website?

 

get that link and do a lookup of it to see if its really a play station email

Sony did have that big security scare not long ago, perhaps this could be from that?

Weird..

Sounds a lot like a phishing scam to me to try and get your details for the PSN...

Got yours today Yak?

No i got mine like, 4 months ago? I still get emails. I don't even have a playstation so... I think someone just signed up to playstation network with my email.

Oh well sort it out soon as I figure out how to contact support lol don't think they exist

I got one of them ages ago, i just ignored as it sent me a receipt for $10 I apparently spent on the PSN, it's total BS.

... its simple, leave it.

or set up security settings and make the person have to type in a pass ( different one form that one) to do anything..

 

oh wait thats xbox....

 

ps sucks..... :L

 

enjoy getting billed :L

joking, but contact them on there main page, there's got to be someway of doing that.

Gday GruAnch

like some of these guy's said/asked just check your credit card details bro....I have a PS3 and I did have to enter my card details etc[almost 5 years ago]....even with the Cyber Hack of PSN I was not affected[in terms of credit card fraud]..Plus,legally speaking,the fact that you have even MENTIONED this on BigD forums means there is proof you have not signed onto PSN[in order to protect yourself should this become a real issue]

 

It would be obviously a good thing to alert the PSN people of this event,but as long as no credit card details have been used,then i would not worry too much...As stated earlier,someones maybe gone "Phishing",but that's about all.

Good luck

funny how you said it was an AU support site but yet the link refers to an Euro one man,

 

not cool, i hope ya sort it

Hang on if they created an account with your email address dont they need to access your email to activate the account. I dont have a PS3 but I assume they have that level of security at the very least. If the PSN does have that level of security should you be more worried if person has access to your emails?

Before Sony got hacked, to activate/create a PS3 account, you had to sign up on the PS3, which would then send an email to your nominated account. You would then have to activate the email on a computer before the account on the PS3 would become live.

 

I don't know if they changed it since the drama.

No there was no activation link in that email.

Yeah searching back, i never got an activation email either.

Looks more like one of those phishing emails to get you to click on a suss link.

 

Although from the title I thought you'd gotten yourself a ps3 .
