Has this happened to anyone else before? Blizzard reset all my passwords and sent me this email:

Greetings,

It has recently been brought to our attention that the World of Warcraft account you are using may have been shared with a third party (for example, a sibling, friend and/or leveling service).

Be aware that it is your responsibility to keep your account password secure; you may not disclose your password to anyone, or allow your password to be used by anyone other than yourself and/or your one (1) minor. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, and you will be responsible for all uses of your password, whether or not authorized by you. Please take a moment to review the World of Warcraft Terms of Use at http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/legal/termsofuse.html regarding account security.

Furthermore, Blizzard Entertainment does not recognize the transfer of Accounts, and any authorized transfer of the World of Warcraft software (as set forth on the worldofwarcraft.com website) will result in the permanent deletion of the Account attached to that software. You may not offer any Account for sale or trade, and any such offer is a violation of this Agreement and may result in suspension or termination of the Account.

For security and privacy reasons, we have reset the password to the World of Warcraft account [Account Name Here]. Once you have received an e-mail with this information, you may proceed to the Account Management page to set the password as you choose. It may take up to one hour for our system to generate and send the temporary password; your patience in this matter is appreciated. If you have not received a temporary password within one hour of receiving this message, please check your:

It wasn't that big of a deal, but it is really annoying. All of my accounts are in my name/email etc... So all I had to do was log into each one and change their passwords back using their "random" temp password. So I submitted a ticket to be like hey WTF it's all me check the contact info and that I'm a multi-boxer so please flag my account and stop the harassment. That's 2 weekends in a row after an all day PvP-fest with my 5x Shaman I get an email lol what are the odds.

One more thing... I got like 75-80gig of FRAPS footage from yesterday anyone know of a decent program for video editing besides vegas pro?

I don't see how the email would be fake. Kind of an odd email. What did the GM you message say may have caused them to think that?

There were some fake emails lurking around I did see that on the WoW forums. However, I did have all of my accounts reset I couldn't log into them this morning without going through the Emails that Blizzard sent me with reset passwords. My situation was real it wasn't wowaccounts@usblizzard.com or whatever the fake email was.
