    Eh, I've seen that one before... and probably get 3-4 a day between that and the beta scam stuff. Of course, I get them all at an e-mail address that only serves as a spam filter that I use on any website that requires registration. XD

    I concur, remove the link.
    on topic I've had fail-er spamscam in game, one attempting to threaten to ban my account and shut it down permanently if I didn't go to a website that misspelled warcraft with two c's and comply. -_-

    I get one where everything looks pretty good except when they sign it "Blizzard Entertainmen". They leave the T off.

    I get a lot of similar sounding tells in game, some just fail so hard at the English language that it makes me lol. Also love some of the character names they come up with to message you, something like "B£ïzzàrdwöwgm"
