They don’t appear to be searching for others personal information in attempt to sell it. Perhaps you should change the title to “Fishing” from “Phishing”.
Fishing bots is, unfortunately, a thing that hunts NW since the early stages, that’s why they removed the gold fom boxes.
Devs already said that they are aware and issuing bans on a daily basis, and they thinking in a way to mitigate this, but they can’t keep the pace, NW is a high profile mmo, there are to many people trying to leverage something.
I believe that a more natural UI that mixes with the enviroment instead of buttons and bargraphs or a more intelligent interaction requeriment might help a bit, but we would suffer from loss of QOL. It seems that obfuscation and memory protection is kind of precarious in NW, they need a more aggressive anti-cheat i guess, that could block most of input simulation and hooking, but i might saying bs here, just exercising the thought i really don’t know what i’m saying.
