Hi CSF,

I just got this email a few hours ago on my Battle.net email account, it looks genuine - the link directs to
http://email.blizzard.com/Key-3226.TV2X.C.C.nGsSmjb which then directs me to the Battle.net login screen.

Is this genuine?

I'd just like to confirm what our greens have already said, this one is legit.

It is ALWAYS a good idea to question any email that seems out of the ordinary, however. Opening the header to confirm sender is also an excellent idea.
