back when I was a recreational freeroller I signed up with partypoker VIA a free 100$ deposit affiliate and for some reason the deposit was never made so I didn't use the account. In the last couple of days I received the following email.
Quote:
Dear PartyPoker's player,

This email is to comunicate you that we are doing a complete review of accounts
to delete accounts that are not being used. To continue the normal activity of
your account you have to verify that you already are using your account.

To verify please go to:
Sign In

If the account is not verified at least in one month, the account will be deleted
without posibility to be restore.

Greetings.
the "sign in" verification is to a website centralrock.es/podcastgenerator/media/secure/(a final bit)

my questions are .....is this a legitimate Party email or a phishing scam. If it is legitimate am i best to wait have the account deleted and then at some time in the future would i be able to create an FTR linked party account?

100% bogus
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

this is the email i got back from Party. To me it seems an automated response and didnt answer the questions i put to them regarding the identity of the verification email. From what is said in this email , could I make a deposit with FTR's bonus code at some point in the future as they seem to be making a distinction between a real money account and a play money account so that the real money account is tracked to FTR rather than the original affiliate.

hi there, i'm in a bit of a pickle and wondered if you could help me please. it seems ive been entering the password for the everest freeroll on the ub freeroll, i finally realised, got the right password and the support team told me ive probably been blocked. im really sorry only been online a couple of months.
Is there any way i can sort this out, or have i gone and dropped a clanger again?

It appears to be a phishing attempt to me. Any link from Party Poker should have party poker in the link. Not to mention, even if it were real and they deleted your account, that would actual benefit you because you could probably then re-sign up as you suggested through FTR.
