Please be advised there is another account phishing email going around. I recieved one today. It makes itself look like it is coming from wowaccountadmin@blizzard.com however is really coming from wowaccountadmin@blizzacd.com. Notice the difference in blizzard on the second one. Please DO NOT send them your information. It reads as follows : \r\n\r\n
Code:
\r\nGreetings!\r\nIt has come to our attention that you are trying to sell/trade your personal World of Warcraft \r\naccount(s).\r\nAs you may or may not be aware of, this conflicts with the EULA and Terms of Agreement.\r\nIf this proves to be true, your account can and will be disabled. It will be ongoing for further \r\ninvestigation by Blizzard Entertainment's employees.\r\nIf you wish to not get your account suspended you should immediately verify your account \r\nownership. If the information is deemed accurate, the investigation will be dropped.\r\nThis action is taken because we at Blizzard Entertainment take these sales\r\nquite seriously. We need to confirm you are the original owner of the account.\r\nThis is easiest done by confirming your personal information along with concealed information \r\nabout your account.\r\nYou can confirm that you are the original owner of the account by replying to this email with:\r\n \r\nUse the following template below to verify your account and information via email.\r\n* First and Surname\r\n* Date of birth\r\n* Address\r\n* Zip code\r\n* Phone number\r\n* Country\r\n* Account e-mail\r\n* Account name\r\n* Account password\r\n* Secret Question and Answer or Cd-Key\r\nIf you ignore this mail your account can and will be closed permanently. Once we verify your \r\naccount, we will reply to your e-mail informing you that we have dropped the investigation.\r\nWe ask you to NOT change password until the investigation is fully completed.\r\nBlizzard Entertainment Inc\r\nAccount Administration Team\r\nP.O. Box 18979, Irvine, CA 92623\r\nRegards,\r\nAccount Administration Team\r\nBlizzard Entertainment\r\n

Scary thing about this one is that with name, DoB, and address they can do a hell of a lot more than steal your account.
