"Be prepared to enter the current retail World of Warcraft account name and password you use"

It's ****ing fake.


also, the font is horrid

[Lazeka]

Bloody morons, lol. There is ways of concealing URLs but obviously they're bloody retarded and never looked for that script.

Also note, other than the URL, it looks exactly like the World of Warcraft beta page. Even though the font does look screwed that's how it looks like. Compare these two sites.

World of Warcraft - The fake one
https://beta.worldofwarcraft.com/expansion/ - The real one

The font may look better if you use anti-aliasing on your system, I don't because I hate it and by not using it I get a much better accurate look on my website designs.
