Getting invited to the beta via a PSN message...

You will NEVER be contacted by Sony regarding joining any beta via a PSN message this is a SCAM, either contact a mod here about any messages you get or use the Grief Report funtion here http://uk.playstation.com/help-support/grief-reporting/ and never , never disclose your personal detail like account email and account password over the PSN as Sony will never ask for these details over a PSN message.

I'm posting this as I was contacted by someone who was 'Invited' to the beta over the PSN which is clearly a scam.

It's no suprise people try these scams, it's just a wonder people fall for it, I think we have to be more vigilant and tell people (like you did) about these guys and report them immediately with actions taken quickly

So people don't answer to it, just report him.

 

Or just spam the guy for fun, if ur bored, go spam him a bit.
