Subject: Re: PartyPoker User Verification
To: admin@partypokersecure.com

I am more than happy to verify my account with Party Poker.

But with all the phishing going on via email, I'm not about to do so via this email.....which is NOT even an address listed at PartyPoker.com

I will do whatever is required to maintain my poker account, but responding to this email with my password is OUT OF THE QUESTION.

This correspondence WILL be forwarded to a legit PartyPoker addy immediately.

I sent this to an addy listed at PartyPoker: abuse@partypoker.com:

I suspect phishing and abuse with this email.

Please take action!

Dear XXXXXXX,

Thank you for contacting PartyCasino customer care.

We never requested for your Account name and Password. Its a spam email and we request you not to reply to that email and in any circumstances do not reveal your Password to any one even at Customer Service Department.

Sincerely,

Praful
PartyCasino Customer Care
