Hogwarts is Here

I got an email stating that my account at HogwartsIsHere.com was going to be deactivated because of no activity for 90 days. I wondered - hmm... I don't remember signing up for that site, but 90 days ago... that's so far back, I might have signed up and just forgotten. The link URL showed HogwartsIsHere.com when I hovered over it, so it wasn't a redirect to something obviously scamming, so I clicked on it. The recruiting email had NO link for unsubscribing.

When I got to the website, I clicked on the 'forgot password' link. That supposedly sent a "reset" code, but when I clicked on that and "signed in", it was actually SIGNING UP! I tried to click on the "edit profile" and account info but it wouldn't let me get to those unless I finished the initial basic profile info, so I put gibberish in the boxes. Then finally it let me go to profile edit, and there was nothing about deleting the account. I went to account info, but again, NOTHING about deleting the account, and now they had my email - no "terms & conditions", no "privacy policy", no "delete account" option. And usually any site aimed towards underage kids usually has someone read the T&C and Privacy policy FIRST, as well as have a 'get permission from parent' email sent to parents before account can be activated! I tried to change my email to a bogus one, but it said it had to 'verify' that email first. So I put in another email for my spam account, but nothing was ever sent to "verify". SCAMMY SCAMMY SCAMMY!
