    In order to have your lifetime honorable kills displayed, you must have at least 1337 honorable kills.

    They don't hack any Blizzard DB, they just go to a site with lots of registered WoW users and use an e-mail spider to get all of the e-mails. Then they use a mass mailer to send this e-mail to everyone.

    I dont get these emails, perhaps there is another site that a lot of mmowned users go to that isnt secure enough. the people who get them a lot should contact each other ia pm about the sites they go to to see if they have any common ground. i hate email scammers + phishing

    Next time GZ, put it in the Global Phishers URL List (Sticky in WoW Scams)

    Because I really don't think we need a thread for a silly phishing scam that's pretty obvious
