I received several emails tonight informing me of my suspension from wow. They have been worded quite well - do not click the link in the spoiler or enter your details into it - you have been warned! - although now I have clicked on it it Google Chrome shows it as a phishing site.
Greetings World of Warcraft -> Legal -> End User License Agreement and Section 8 of the Terms of Use: Blizzard Entertainment -> Legal -> Terms of Use A 3-hour probationary suspension is pending on this account, awaiting confirmation from a specialist. A final warning has been issued. The investigation will be continued by the Account Administration team to determine the any further suspensions. If the account in question is found in violation of the EULA and Terms of Use, further action will be taken. Be aware that any additional inappropriate actions may result in the permanent closure of the account. Thank you for respecting our position on this matter. ================================================================================================================== ** We request that you verify your legitimate ownership of the account here: http://www.battle-logins...om/account/&app=wam Blizzard staff will verify your account information submitted in two days, please do not modify your account information during this time . It will not affect your game uptime.If you are unable to successfully verify your password . using the automated system, please contact Billing & Account Services at 1-800-59-BLIZZARD (1-800-592-5499) Mon-Fri, 8am-8pm Pacific Time or at billing@blizzard.com. Account security is solely the responsibility of the account holder. Please be advised that in the event of a compromised account, Blizzard representatives typically must lock the account. In these cases the Account Administration team will require faxed receipt of ID materials before releasing the account for play.
The difference being that these were intentionally designed to circumvent my spam filters and they did so. They concerned me enough to ask for myself and alts to be demoted until I could figure out the truth. I just thought I would post to keep you all on your toes and watch out for crap like this (unless ofc I really have been suspended :P) //Goli and then steal the gbank /Golithir.jpg)

Test one before you click is of course: Are you actually suspended? :D

slightly off topic but I discovered something similar when I logged on Arathor.net last night. I had a mail from the 15th februari saying that the website had detected a virus on my computer and giving me a link to somewhere where my pc would be searched/cleaned from any virus. Funny thing though as I, afaik, never logged on there between december until march o.O

the easy way to spot this is the link they send, and dont look at the text but the link in your bottom bar in your browser http://www .battle-logins...om/account/&app=wam this one say, battle-logins unless it say www.battle.net/www.worldofwarcraft.com/its fake if you recive something like this and is uncertian. talk to a ingame GM and if you can log into your game, your are not suspended :)

I don't trust any of those mails. I get about 3 of em every day. If Blizzard does ban me I'll know when I can't log in and it says "Account suspended".

I dont think Blizzard would send out a warning to a player that a suspension/ban is "awaiting confirmation from a specialist."
