Anyone else got any of these? I've got 2

The first one said I had bought SC II and needed to activate it through a link...I don't recall buying the game and the mail came from WoWAccountAdmin@blizzard.com

Then I got a mail about my Battle.net account password getting changed. the mail came from WoWAccountEU@blizzard.review.com

I don't even own a battle.net account. :D

Be very careful about these scams, some of them really look official.

There is one for the Cataclysm Beta. It also looks very official and sends you right to the WoW account login. It is a scam and always check the address the site sent you to.

LOL, man you should see my inbox, I get at least 10 of these a day, plus some for Aion, and I never played Aion, the WoW one's are much more prevalent though

Unicorns ARE real - They are just fat, grey and called Rhinos
