| Strange e-mails from Blizzard?
I've gotten this e-mail on both of my accounts. One was used for a WoW trial account wayyyy back, the second has only been used for professional purposes. Here's the one email: Quote:

edit: Now that my herp derp-ing is done, I guess this is just a heads up to other users, be careful with your account info.

Yeah I realized halfway through posting once I read through the e-mails more thoroughly and got the warning about the site (it's been a long day). I got another one too, warning me that my account was allegedly being used against the EULA.
delete plz.

I don't think they even have any knowledge of what e-mails are for WoW accounts, they just send them out hoping you have one they can steal.

This is clearly spam, BUT, all accounts are run through B.net now....If ever in doubt, even though it's fucking obvious, go to worldofwarcraft.com and try logging in, look at the link...--> https://us.battle.net/login/en/login...count/&app=wam |

Forward the emails to blizzard/battle.net they'll probably take a look at these ones for sure for security reasons..
Funny how a lot of these are starting to come out now that SC2 has the Real name + Email all in one together in their buddy system.
