WOW Scam Email
I would like to see this get over the Leftovers boards, but they are blocked from work. Hoping my LJ buddies can help out.

I got this. The only thing that made me wonder was the duration. Carefully checking the URLs--the login one, not surprisingly, is not to Blizzard.

But it is to the email account my Blizzard account is associated with.

*** NOTICE OF FINAL WARNING ***

Account Action: 3 Hour Suspension

Account Offense: Violation of EULA and Terms of Service - Transfer of Account Ownership

Details: An investigation of your World of Warcraft account has found strong evidence that the account in question is being sold or traded. In accordance with EULA section 4, Paragraph B, listed below:

World of Warcraft -> Legal -> End User License Agreement

and Section 8 of the Terms of Use:

Blizzard Entertainment -> Legal -> Terms of Use

A 3-hour probationary suspension is pending on this account, awaiting confirmation from a specialist. A final warning has been issued. The investigation will be continued by the Account Administration team to determine the any further suspensions. If the account in question is found in violation of the EULA and Terms of Use, further action will be taken. Be aware that any additional inappropriate actions may result in the permanent closure of the account.

Thank you for respecting our position on this matter.

=========================================================
** We request that you verify your legitimate ownership of the account here:

https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/login/login? service=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldofwarcraft.com%2Faccount% 2Findex.html

URL really leads to usbattlenet(dot)sitepages(dot)org
=========================================================

In these cases the Account Administration team will require faxed receipt of ID materials before releasing the account for play.

The best way to know if that is a scam or not is to contact Blizzard directly to avoid losing your account. I would also suggest that you visit http://www.articlecat.com/Article/Safety-in-the-World-of-Warcraft/288606 it's a very helpful article that will give you some knowledge to avoid being scammed in world of warcraft.
