Sefket Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Posted from Karl on PW: Hello, I'm posting this topic because lately I've had numerous people come to me saying they have been phished and if I can look up an IP for them. I'm not sure how you guys can fall for a phishing scam. As you can see by the image above, there is a green bar. This proves the legitimacy of a website as proves the website has an SSL certificate. Upon clicking it, you will be shown further information about the certificate in question. The above image shows the certificate is owned and licensed to Jagex Limited. It also shows the real URL. Which obviously is RuneScape.com. Another thing is, upon logging in on RuneScape's website you will be taken to https. Note carefully the "s" at the end, this means it is secure and your data is encrypted prior to being sent across the internet. These are tell-tale signs of a completely legitimate website. You can also avoid being phished by not clicking random links. A lot of phishing websites look real, but they will have flaws. For example certain images not showing up, no secure pages, and the URL will be different. Please stop falling for these stupid scams, there are simply enough ways to check if a website is a legitimate one or not.
