The biggest giveaway from it all though was
From: WoWAccountreviewEU@blizzard.com (wowaccountreview_eu@hotmail.com)

check the header and see what IP it was sent from, forward the mail to the responsible ISP for that IP address. I bet nothing will happen, but the thought of the scammerkid COULD get his internet shut down makes me happeeh ^__^

Should be next to impossible to get scammed if you just keep one thing in mind... BLIZZARD WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR PASSWORD.

Of course Antivirus and a proper web browser helps as well Never use iexplore6.

yeah obvious scam.

Not sure what kind of action you can take against these guys but posting this on the wow-europe forums would be nice for people who might be gullible

nice one

Friend of mine got that, stupid as he was he answered the mail, gave away his information and got hacked 1-2 weeks later. His account just back this week, after waiting for blizz to do their "investigation".

I found it funny that he use the phrase "can and will" several times.
