Email from BABW..?

I got an email asking for my BABV account name and password. But, I'm not sure if this is real so if anyone can help me, thank you so much!

It looks real. Yup, I think it's real, cause I heard some rumors of them doing safety checks, this time of year, to make sure your account is safe.

Ok, thanks for helping. I wanted to make sure because if it's a spam I could get hacked! If it's real I better reply or my BABV account will be gone! D:

I don't think its's real because if it was they would have capotilized "Thank you beary much"I haven't gotten one and it does say Every Citizen!Also why would your account be discountected?And I have never heard of the website buildabearworkshop@live.com before.I personally don't think it's real.I am sorry if I am wrong but better to be safe than sorry.And when you get an email like this you should always re-read it to make sure that even the smallest things are correct.Like a mayjor company would have capitalzed Thank you beary much.I will let you know if I reacive one of them E-mails.

Do not email back anything until we have heard word from the cbg'S please

Wow, this is scary. Please do not do anything until we hear something.

Oh and one thing is that it says someone is using this e-mail address reacatly and it sas you recive this e-mail about that.And that right there are like huge flashing lights,just calling out going'Fake Fake Fake".Not unless you used it reacitly?Wow this is confusing lol.

It may be real but I would wait untill the CBGs give the OK.Also I don't have my glases on so I don't know but down at the bottom is Bearific spell wrong it has 2 rs?

But guys..

I also got an email from BABV about multiple accounts I've made. They had my usernames and passwords. I deleted it though, it had a BABV banner at the bottom too..

So..why do they need it? It might not be real but CyBearGuides, I would greatly appreciate if you can answer before tomorrow.

Thats just it WHY do they need it?Also think of it this way.It may be forged.They could have gotten the build a bear address and copyed it and sent it around.I know that sounds weird but they wouldn't need it if they already had you other ones?Also why would they just be asking for 1.I will keep you updated if I recive anything suspisuse.

That's scary!! Don't Reply, my guess is that is a total fake. First, some of there letters aren't capitalized! And i've never heard of that e-mail adress either. Just DO NOT reply.

I think is fake too,and i never heard about buildabearworkshop@live.com

But wait.. Jeanna, ths thing is.. if it isn't BABW...how did they get your email?

^^Remi:
Who knows, they can be from a forum I'm from and they know my email address..trying to hack me..

Maybe, you should change your emails on the forums... so they can't try to hack you again.... :mad:

Noone should be sending you emails to hack you. That's plain WRONG.

Check the sender's email address. I see buildabearworkshop@live.com. Live.com is a free email service of hotmail.com.

Build-A-Bear Workshop's email always ends with buildabear.com.

Example: vwhelp@buildabear.com, vwpatrol@buildabear.com, guest.services@buildabear.com


Ignore that email - it's a SCAM.

i NEVER got one

Ok, thank you. I didn't send an email back so that's good.

If it's live.com then maybe I can figure out who did this scam. ;] Thanks so much Chuck!

Yeah, definitely fake. It would be harsh if they disconnected your account if you didnt reply :\

Edit: yesh, you didnt give them your username + password ever before???

Thanks for the support.

I found out who did it..A person from BGF..I thought we were friends..

Good!

Oh... Jeanna, I think I know who it is. They're WERE from your forum.

Really, really scary. I would just say not to reply to that e-mail. BABW nor BABV will never ask for your user-name or password. BABV or BABW has been voted for kid-friendly back in 2008 or 2007. So they would never do that. Build-a-Bearville patrol helped me by getting hacked because I got hacked. So they would never hack you. And disconnecting accounts...? That doesn't make any sense, they would only close (disconnect) your account if you have done anything wrong. Just don't reply to this e-mail and live.com? BABV's e-mail always ends with ''buildabear.com''. Hope this helped

I'm so sorry I wasn't able to see this sooner! Chuck is right Build-A-Bear is not affiliated with this email address nor any other free email services. Thank you JeannaBearFun for taking precautions first before sharing any of your account information.

I can tell it's a scam because one: It says We are sending this e-mail to every citizen of buildabearville. If they are sending it, I would've gotten the message, which I didn't. Secondly, they wouldn't close your account unless you have cussed or sweared, or tried to get personal information, and thirdly, like Admin wrote that all Build-A-Bear Workshop's e-mails ends with @buildabear.com. The message had @live.com, which is with Hotmail. So yup it's a scam.
