So for my own amusement I replied:

That is, without a doubt quite a feat someone must have done to compromise an account that does not exists as I am not a player! It must have been magic!

It's so awesome to know that the "RuneScape Team" is working so hard for my best interests in this matter and directing me to verify my account on an unsecured connection with a https after the http to make my heart feel at ease typing in the login details of an account that mysteriously must have appeared out of magic!

As a token of my gratitude for your great assistance in this matter I would like to show you a piece of art I have that I think will sum up everything for you!

Thank you so much, and have a great day!

Wonder if I shall get a reply...

I don't think you will, because both you and I know that these emails are sent to the masses electronically.

But still, if on the off chance someone does read it, that's quite the comeback XD

I think this topic could go either way. It's not spam. Okay, yeah it is. XD but it's a perfectly serious topic about spam XD it... ugh I should shut up now lol.

What you should have done was enter tons of fake accounts on that site so it totally fucks them over.

don't think its funny enough for EOTF and that's a major requirement of such however if someone in power thinks it is then send it over

Well done on confirming your email address to the spammers.

may I ask you we're you got your name from cause I had saw it somewhere besides here and I was wondering was it from a cartoon or game or something like that.

If someone actually reads the reply, then this is all I got for you.
