Autolycus.4590 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 On Feb 2 I received an email from guildwars2@ncsoft.com that announced the new Lunar New Year content. Most of the many links in the email direct to guildwars2.ncsoft.com. But all of the web-browsers I've tried prevent me from loading those pages, claiming the connection is not secure. Apparently the problem is that the https cert for ncsoft.com is linked to bluehornet.com, and not ncsoft.com. I'm guessing that ncsoft hired bluehornet to do marketing for them, but messed up the cert. I'm suspect this is all a legit error, and not phishing, but end users aren't supposed to have to guess about this stuff. (I personally haven't overriden the security warnings to plow through to the website myself) If there's somone from the companies reading this (arenanet, ncsoft, bluehornet, etc) please forward the info to the proper team for investigation/correction.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Must be already taken care of, because the links work fine for me. (Firefox) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Firefox)It is not it still has a bat certificate cause if you type guildwars2.ncsoft.com it directs you to http://guildwars2.ncsoft.com now try with https://guildwars.ncsoft.com (which the clickable link in the mail probably redirects to) and you get a certificate error.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Guildwars.ncsoft.com is not the same as guildwars2.ncsoft.com.I tried all the links in my email (both of them for my 2 accounts); no issue with any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
