Notice the difference

I would be careful.
Oh my. I just saw that. Great you noticed that. I looked at some old emails from VMK in my inbox and none of them had that part in there. I'm starting to lead towards scam now.

Nice spot. Sadly, I must say that now I am leaning towards a scam also.

Oh dear! Noticing these typos I would be VERY careful.. don't click ANY links in those emails.



EDIT: Also, on the email, it says "www" in front of VMK.com, Disney doesn't use the three w's in their website adresses.

Like other people have said,

mailman@virtualmagickingdom <-- is from VMK

mailman@virtualmagicalkingdom <-- clearly false

VMK will NOT ask you to become a mini-tester. VMK will NOT ask you to reply, Unless you have further questions.


"We have reviewed your bans and VMK information" <--VMK doesn't talk like that....

They also say "Regards" or "Thank You" and not thanks <-- this is according to ALL messages I have received from VMK. Thank You was from automatic replies and Regards was from all VMK_Shorty replies.

Quote:
Regards,

VMK_Shorty
VMK Player Support
http://www.vmk.com
"Hi there," and "Hello" is the start of all the messages <--- Hi there is from VMK_Shorty and Hello is from Automatic replies.


They will also include the message you have sent to them - It has "
>" then your message next to it. Also, VMK will NEVER e-mail you unless you e-mail them. Says that somewhere on the newsletter page...

And here's another point on this so called "mini-testers"...

Why does VMK need them? They already have paid testers who test all the items in the game. If VMK gave a couple of regular players new items to test, do you think those players would actually "test" the items, as in send in reports on bugs? I think those players would rather "play" with the items...

Also, VMK is supposed to be a fun game for players, NOT a place for players to work on testing items.
