35 [IS] Jahona Beta Testers 90 posts 3,042 battles Report post #4 Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) I received the email as well. Opened the link on a VM. It does open up a survey website but the first question page starts to ask for personal info like name, address, and phone. That's to much personal information for me to willingly give out even if it's legit. Edited April 3, 2017 by Jahona Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG, if this is legit, you're going to need to say so, because there's no way in hell I'm putting my crap into something as shady as this.

188 [-K-] Backwards_Logic [-K-] Members 176 posts 12,805 battles Report post #15 Posted April 3, 2017 I would like someone from WG to comment on this to verify its authenticity. The only surveys WG have conducted through email are the ones they send out, and I'm highly suspicious if they've just now decided to contract this out to a third party.

3,287 [WG-CC] SireneRacker -Members-, Members 9,101 posts 8,050 battles Report post #17 Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) WG would most likely announce something like that on the website, so I am calling doubt on that one.

5,661 Macabe Alpha Tester, Members, In AlfaTesters, Beta Testers 12,413 posts Report post #18 Posted April 3, 2017 Every WG survey i have ever gotten has been created using a survey tool that is from(probably made by) WG or a google form. They also have no need for any of your personal information besides your username and MAYBE the email associated with your account. That email is probably fraud as i doubt WG is going to pay you for anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
