looks like a scam im afraid to say mate, im no expert though.

After clicking the link it asked me for my username and password. I gladly gave it. Then it took my to a page to enter all my infor includding cd key and secret answer. I did not enter either. I went and changed my passwrod quickly.

Only a r tard cant see its a scam...and im not calling the op r tard...just saying its a scam...blizz never ever will ask you for your account info..at all, never ever ever

That looks nothing like the Burning Crusade beta invite I got back in the day. Best thing to do is forward it to Blizzard Support so they can either verify it or at least warn the community about a possible scam.

Yeps it is scam and btw you link not work any more "..page no longer exist..."

Obvious scam.

here is where the link took me

It's obviously a scam. Just mouseover the link in the OP.

Wouldn't you expect a link to go to the Blizzard site or worldofwarcraft.com site?

Imo the mods should delete this thread because some people might follow the link and enter in their details not knowing it was a scam..
