Today I just received a fake Home Beta invite on my PSN account asking for my email and password. Since I have been reading up on Home Beta, I know that the US invites are not being sent out yet, plus you get the beta code and not a message asking you for your email and password. I know others have made topics about this but I thought that it would be nice to post pics of how the fake invite looks. I hope no one have fallen for this scam. Here are the pics that I took.

Thanks for the tip!

Kinda reminds me of people trying to scam MMORPG accounts off little kids.

If they wanted to sound legitimate they should have practiced on their English skills first.

it's true but it's not for us who are 15+, it's for those young kids who don't know better and are gullible. Everyone at some point in their life was inticed by that ad that told you that you won a free PS3 or the chain letter that told us that they would die if they didn't send this message to 15 other people. I know as a kid i was intrigued but thank god had the presence of mind to see something wasn't right. Some gullible young kid using his dads credit card might not have that presence of mind.
