E-Mail we do not send[edit]
- We will never ask for information about your Google Account or other accounts.
- Emphatically, that means we will never ask for passwords, credentials, or other secret information.
Verifying legitimate mail[edit]
- We will use your real name (obtained from your Google Account) and possibly your character name(s) in addressing you. For example, the header (envelope) of an e-mail might say,
To: "John Doe" <john.doe@example.com>
- We will only contact you using appropriate Tootsville e-mail accounts. The following domains are associated with Tootsville support e-mails:
- @tootsville.net
- @tootsville.org
- For product sales only,
- @tootsville.com
- We will never ask for any password or financial information
Note:
- @players.tootsville.org addresses are from other players of the game, and not (necessarily) members of the CIWTA team.
- @tootsbook.com addresses may belong to writers of blogs about Tootsville, and not (necessarily) members of the CIWTA team.
More technical checks[edit]
- System-generated messages will also have a (usually) hidden Message-ID code ending in tootsville.org or tootsville.net.
- We will begin Signing E-Mail in the future. This will help to prove that we sent the message.
