spam account warning
I got two identical spam messages in the Pogo email message area (not my regular email). They said:

I checked the sender of the message; she is a club member since 2008 with a lot of earned badges, so I'm guessing her account was hacked. I didn't want to put her name here so I'm leaving it out. I checked around and couldn't find an email address to forward spam to. I did find an article about what to do if your account is suspended with a link to check your ban and suspension history. Mine shows no history, as I expected.
I'm assuming this is spam.
Hello Everyone,
I wanted to drop in to share some information on account security and potential phishing. If you are speaking to someone you believe is not an EA employee, reviewing this information can help protect your account and privacy.
If you are interested in more information on Cyber Security, we also have an excellent post highlighting information for Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
Answers HQ Cybersecurity Awareness Month!
Cheers!
