    Dear "psnname"

    This is just a friendly reminder that you have funds in your PSN wallet that have not been used for six months or more.

    To view your account balance, please sign-in to account management by clicking here.

    Your funds can be used for games, add-ons, movies, music and more, available in PlayStation®Store.

    Just got this email and it looks dodgy to me.

    The email came from 
    PlayStation_Network@playstation-email.com via innovyx.net

    How is it dodgy?? It just asks you to sign in to your account.....it's not like its asking for your credit card details or anything??

    The link would bring you to a phishing site. You log in. They get your details.

    Dear god man,

    Internet101 - the window these things link to make you think you are inputting your details in a Sony website when in actualy fact you are entering them into their site.
