Players Unlocked the Modern Warfare 2 Phishing Perk; Users, Beware!

The latest Xbox Live status message should not be missed by anyone who has pivotal information on their Live accounts, especially those playing Modern Warfare 2. While most of the server statuses are "up and running," the matchmaking section reads as follows:

"Users may receive potential phishing attempts via title specific messaging while playing Modern Warfare 2."

Phishing is the act of one person attempting to gain another's personal information by posing as someone they aren't, or, pretending to be a trustworthy person.


Of course, Microsoft is working on the issue; just be weary until everything is up and at 'em again.
