    [Question]Am I getting scammed?

    [Question]Am I getting scammed?
    Hello. Ive just received this in my email:

    Greetings!
    It has come to our attention that you are trying to sell/trade your personal World of Warcraft account(s).
    As you may or may not be aware of, this conflicts with the EULA and Terms of Agreement.
    If this proves to be true, your account can and will be disabled. It will be ongoing for further investigation by Blizzard Entertainment's employees.
    If you wish to not get your account suspended you should immediately verify your account ownership. If the information is deemed accurate, the investigation will be dropped.
    This action is taken because we at Blizzard Entertainment take these sales
    quite seriously. We need to confirm you are the original owner of the account.
    This is easiest done by confirming your personal information along with concealed information about your account.
    You can confirm that you are the original owner of the account by replying to this email with:

    Use the following template below to verify your account and information via email.
    * First and Surname
    * Date of birth
    * Address
    * Zip code
    * Phone number
    * Country
    * Account e-mail
    * Account name
    * Account password
    * Secret Question and Answer
    If you ignore this mail your account can and will be closed permanently. Once we verify your account, we will reply to your e-mail informing you that we have dropped the investigation.
    We ask you to NOT change password until the investigation is fully completed.

    Account Administration Team
    P.O. Box 18979, Irvine, CA 92623
    Regards,

    Im thinking its a scam since it shows up its from "blizzard" not "Blizzard".
    And even though the e-mail it comes from shows up as: [email protected] I still think its a scam cause Ive seen some here.

    But as far as I know, for this scam to work the scammer is supposed to have acces to my e-mail so he can see the data I send. ^^

    Question: What should I do? CHange my email pass?

    Blizzard will never ask for you information, so disregard it.

    And no, he doesn't need access to your email to send you this.

    This is a scam.

    It's been around for ages now. And Blizzard will never ask for any information regarding your account unless you called Billing.
