Remove the link or i'll have somebody do it for you.
Could be anything on there and some people could click it as they are curious. You're basically spreading a scamming / posible virus/trojan site further.

[bomben]

[guymay]

it looks like joymax login screen excatly ..
you need to "login" to the site to claim the "prize"

You get a SoSun+11 Barney super-hyper-special avatar just because your avatar is awesome like that!

[Swindler]

Damn, why didnt you say this earlier? I thought I actually won, but I lost... my account

[4-n-zics]

So, what contest did your 4 friends sign up for? Since they all got messages saying they all won first place and all got scammed, I figured they all signed up for the same "contest"

4 out of 4000+ players = majority??

I've had a few of these..if it's not the joymax site (http://www.joymax.com/silkroad/) it's not getting my id/pw.

i dunno if this was sarcasem but ... noone signed for nothing . i think they go guild by guild from rev 6 and send offline messege to everyone in the guild .

[MissLe2]

lol even better is the guy who has [gm]mail char name
on summer cert event came to me and told me i had won and would have to go to ****.joymax.com to give my account info to confirm my prize award, was told i won a som and i could choose lvl and weapon
all i had to do was go confirm with my info, and leave a space in inventory
so played with him asking him questions
asked why i hadnt seen list of winners yet on main site
answer we hadnt had confirmation from each player who won yet
asked about policy of never giving info to any one
answer if you dont want to win dont matter to me
asked if he could talk in pink
answer yes (but he didnt)
asked if he was a scammer
answer no he was gm mail for awarding prizes
called him a scammer
answer now you are going to be banned for a week

funny thing is i did win a sos d8 harp, lol

got pics somewhere if any wants to see, i can try to find them

[Halfjaw77]

Yeah I got this message as well(Server Troy, too) . I thought it was from the 10D SOS Event Prize, but then quickly realized it was a scam.

Yes, it was sarcasm. Out of all of the "contests" that JM has had have you ever had to sign up for anything and have they notified the winners via in game mail? No.... Being that that is the case, how could anyone actually fall for it? Those that fall for it are the same people that actually think they have won the British Lottery because they got an email that said they did (even though they have never played the British Lottery).

[Pan_Raider(`_´)]

i wish they'd do that on every server,
seriously, to get all those retarded 12 year olds off

[nohunta]

.uk..... what an idiot if you fall for that joymax is korean.

[LillDev!l]

Lol, i also got this message, but as said before, your pretty stupid if you fall for this

They probably do it guild by guild, server by server, cause this was in Eldorado like 4 months ago... after that i heard it was spreaded out in Athens, now Troy...
Unfortunatelly, one of my guildmates fell for it...
And it was posted before on the forums, but i guess not many ppl saw it... i think it was in the Q&A section, don't remember...
