I am a Guild master of a large guild on my server, and have seen several players accounts comprimised in the last week. One member even had all his toons deleted on his account.
The reason for my post here is two fold... One, to spread the word and warn players about the new tactic the account thieves are using. If you really think Blizzard is gonna give you a "free" $25 mount, go ahead and click the link... If you think Blizz might want the $25.... report it as a phishing scam.
the second reason I post about this is in my opening sentence... My wife ONLY used this email to correspond with Blizz...
so how did her email address end up in the hackers mailing list? Is there a comprimise in Blizzards database that the Hackers have utilized to gain access to Blizz's customers? Why would they not tell us about it?
