Hey all, sorry about the gaps between posts lately. I´m currently on easter vacations and trying to post as often as I can still, but it´s a bit so so.
This post isn’t about grinding gold or anything and it´s just more of a warning about a mail that is circulating now and just reached my mailbox. This is a mail used to gather information about your account and will most likely be used to hack it and clean it out for gold. Do not click links in mails like these even if you are curious, they will through malware or other means gather information about your login details in World of Warcraft and steal your stuff.
I´m aware of these mails popping up now and then, more often than not lately. But still, I figure it´s a good thing to warn about them when they do appear. The intention is that we will get rich in WoW without having to use crappy means like these sewer slimes does.
Here is the original mail, with the link removed or rather replaced.
World of Warcraft - Compromised Account Issue
Warning: This message may not be from whom it claims to be. Beware of following any links in it or of providing the sender with any personal information. Learn more
It has come to our attention that you are trying to sell/trade your personal World of Warcraft account. As you may or may not be aware of, this conflicts with the EULA and Terms of Agreement of Blizzard Entertainment and World of Warcraft. If upon further investigation you are indeed attempting to obtain monetary profit against the terms of the user agreement, your account can and will be disabled. Blizzard has the right to consider legal action if necessary, based on the severity of the action.
If you hope to avoid account suspension you should verify your personal possession of the account in question. We at Blizzard Entertainment take infractions of the user agreement quite seriously, and we must confirm the original ownership of the account. This is easily done by supplying your personal information about your account.
To verify your identity please visit the following webpage:

If you ignore this mail your account can and will be closed permanently due to suspicions of alternative ownership. We ask that during the time of the investigation you give approximately twenty-four hours of inactivity after sending a response email. This should provide enough time for Blizzard to confirm your identity and that the terms of agreement are being followed as is necesarry.

And remember, don’t click links in mails, forums and stuff unless you know you can trust the one sending or posting the links. There are very nasty forms of hacking out there.
Until next time, Happy Easter and happy easy grinding!
