more interresting : what is the REAL address behind the url ? They often use an URL whose text is some real site (paypal, for example) but the link points to another site which mimicks the real one...
I got these emails from paypal, some creditcard company, facebook...all claiming my password needed to be changed and to follow the link. Just ignore it :p
I replied to the real mail "stop spamming me, scammer bytchez!" but nothing, they continue sending this.
The Q here is.. from where did they get the mail list? :S
1) better not answer. Either it's telling that you're a "valid" target (that you do read yur E-Mail) or you're answering to someone who didn't know some mail had been sent in his name (spoofing)
2) better is to contact blizzard with the full mail text... Most important is the URL hidden in the mail (not the worldofwarcraft address but the hidden one behind that link)
3) train the message to your anti-spam program (I think that Thunderbird has a decent anti-spam system, outlook express is not a mail program... it's junk !!!)
in gmail - checkbox on letter then add to spam )
really strange thing with this....blizzard was hacked by spammers?)) or just DDOS theirs recovery service with many-many-many e-mails?
Tiger, once tasted human flesh, will want to taste it again
