Quoting for clicky!

Hilld, the in-game message you received was not sent by a Blizzard representative, and the website to which you were linked is not an official Blizzard site. Both the message and the website are part of a larger phishing attempt aimed at stealing your account's login information.

In the future, should you ever receive a similar message in the future, be sure to report them as spam. If you receive a malicious in-game mail, select the "Report Spam" option in the upper right-hand corner of the mail window. If you receive a malicious in-game whisper, right-click the author's name and select the "Report Spam" option. In both cases, this will automatically file a report and place all characters on the author's account on ignore for the duration of your login session. :)
