Just received this email APPARENTLY from newsletter@email.blizzard.net although that is probably spoofed. It looks pretty authentic, so beware! I know this is a fake because: 1) I have never given the email address this was sent to to blizzard 2) They are trying to get you to goto highly dodgy links. Hovering over either the link which is apparently to http://www.battle.net or the link which is apparently to "play free now" will send you to: http://www.worldofwarcxaft.tk/cert/login.asp?ref=https%3A%2F%2Fus.battle.net%2Faccount%2Fmanagement2Findex.xml&app=bam As you can see. This is NOT a legit link. Be Warned. DONT GO THERE

Just got the email. It is fake. The link opens up http://us.battle.net.pamdariai-beta.com/gm/d3.html?cr=true&ref=http%3A%2F%2F%2Faccount%2F&app=wam which looks almost convincing except that if it were real, Pandaria wouldn't be spelled incorrectly, and a realistic link could have been pandaria-beta.us.battle.net So delete it. You were not invited. |

I got it as well, almost clicked on it, then thought hmm. Went ot warcraft account, nope I'm not even listed in their beta offerings :) But it does indeed look legit.
You know, in ancient Egypt. One of the hieroglyphics on the walls of the pyramids actually says 'I am upset as my heir will ruin my kingdom' or something to that affect. This is 5000BC stuff and you know what? Nothing has changed. :P |

Just got one of these. They've changed the links. I Imagine they're doing a lot of this now because of the D3 launch. Header says it's from a yahoo email address. "Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice." ~Greys Law |
