Email From "Blizzard" Lagit or Not.

[DIllett7799]

I have gotten a few emails back in my early days of wow that led to an accout suspension/banning. Today I recived this email (Posted below) That said that my account was under investigation and to not change the password/email/ect. for they belived it to be a tradded account. Heres the kicker. Try to find the name of my account down there. Its not posted. So I went to all 4 of my accounts on the bliz page (not the one linked in the email) To see their status. They where all up and running. So I changed all their passes and am wondering what should I do next. Any input from my fav cominity?

Not Legit.

And if you want me to read that "letter" before answering, you'll have to pay me extra.

Might want to edit out that link it redirects to "http://bad.address/randomletters"

[Zal]

You should also edit out your e-mail address.

Anytime you get a questionable e-mail, you should hover your mouse over the links. The actual address should show up in your browser's status bar :

There are at least two other threads about the exact same thing, and there's absolutely NO REASON AT ALL for you to leave the links intact, even if you have now marked them as "not safe".

am wondering what should I do next.

Nothing at all. Delete the mail - as the millions of other recipients have done - and continue to enjoy boxing

Once more, for those in the cheap seats.

Don't post unsafe links from phishing emails.

I realize it's oh so tempting, so when you post this stuff, REMOVE THE LINKS, or MAKE THEM UNCLICKABLE.
