Although I wouldn't have liked my first post here to be like this, it can't be helped so anyway, here goes.
Basically, earlier today whilst I was on ESO, some guy started a "whisper" to me and told me that I have a virus, at first I thought that he was talking rubbish, and i left ESO for a break. However, when I returned on about half an hour later, he started up the conversation with me again, but the only difference was that this time there was another name in the conversation marked "ESO:" as the account name and this name was in white rather than the usual orangy colour that names normally are displayed in, in whisper mode. This lead me to believe that he was some kind of MOD. ESO: said that if I didn't give him my password my account would be blocked for sporting a virus. So, after much deliberation between me and my friend, I decided to give him the information (probably a stupid idea) at which point he said that he would fix the problem for me. Later when i finished playing a game it logged me out and wouldn't let me back in as it said my account password was wrong. So it's likely my password was changed.
I have tried to retrieve my password from the ESO site with no luck however as the only send me an E-mail with a bad link saying the page cannot be displayed when I fill out their information.
So I have come down to the possible conclusions that I either: have been had by a bunch of sad account stealing retards, or they are actually dealing with the virus by preventing me from logging in. However, I am not stupid and realise that I have probably been had.
So I was just wondering has anyone else had the same problem? Or does anyone know of anything I can do, because I am probably going to have to go to the shops tomorrow to buy a new disc now and start a new account.
Anyway, thanks for reading and any tips would be appreatiated.
Thanks MightMoomin
