Phishing Email

Just got, what I suppose is a phishing attempt. I got an email from "Riot" saying I'm banned until February 23... but I'm not... I"ve been playing.

Weird.

According to this it looks like your account has been compromised. I would strongly suggest that you send in a ticket and change your passwords ASAP.

Those are actual Riot links, so that's the worst phishing attempt ever. The message was probably just an error. Submit a Support Ticket.
