BGG GeekMarket Scam?
Recently I've been purchasing some games on BGG Geekmarket and just started to list some of my own games as well. Today I got this email notification which is typical of when I get a message on BGG. Email address is the same as other legitimate BGG messages. I got suspicious/confused when the following happened. The link to read the message returns "Message Not Found" and there's no corresponding message when I go to my BGG inbox. I clicked the link in the subject line which takes me to the screenshots posted in the image. Stupidly, I typed in my cc info, at which point it asked me to enter in my current account balance to "verify" my card. That's when I thought "wow i'm being really stupid right now and getting scammed". Closed out, locked my cc. Anyone have any insight on this? There's no way this is legitmate BGG verification right? The thought process I had for this being legitimate was that someone was reaching out to purchase a game but couldn't due to me not being verified on the platform, so it didn't fully come through or something.
