Christopher Elwell 2d7ddf45d6 change wording of phishing notice, due to EIP 1102 (#5819) 
With the EIP 1102 updates, MetaMask *does* now open itself when visiting some websites. Changed the wording here to clarify that MetaMask will not open itself to ask you for your seed phrase.

Raw Blame History

Dear MetaMask Users,

There have been several instances of high-profile legitimate websites such as BTC Manager and Games Workshop that have had their websites temporarily compromised. This involves showing a fake MetaMask window on the page asking for user's seed phrases. MetaMask will never open itself to ask you for your seed phrase, and users are encouraged to report these instances immediately to either our phishing blacklist or our support email at support@metamask.io.
