What do I do now? (On limited time I thinks)

I was told via whisper to come here, well, log into[Removed] so I did, okey, now what? are there like Personal Messages they send? I was told in the whisper that there was a violation, but it didn't say what or what to do once I logged in, so, please, GM, tell me what to do and what I did wrong. Honestly, I'm scared (wonder if I should be upset if I did nothing wrong) and worried. They said they'd like, I guess stop my account or something. (if they do, they'd better well give my my $20 back for the game I bought!) Anyways-what did I do wrong and if I posted something I shouldn't by accident-then can't they just delete it and give me a warning instead of jumping the gun here as though I'm a repeat offender? *dispite this being my first time doing somethings wrong-that I didnt mean to do obviously* ;-;

Anyways, what with the sudden threat, you'd think I like, did something horrible (over three times) o.O
What'd I do? And what do I do so they don't kill meh account or what not? Last I checked, I've been trying to help others, like show them where to go for things.

(Though there is this one person harrasing me, did she say I did something wrong? I told her I'd report her if she didn't leave me alone-she kept repeatedly challenging me to duel dispite my repeated declines, I told her to leave several times, she didn't, I ignored her, she keeps fallowing me! I had to run into the big city of Darnassas and run to alot of folks to get her to stop. And even then it took so long. Btw, how do I report someone like that?)

Maritah....breathe.

You likely received a phishing attempt to get you to go to a site for the purposes of stealing your password.

If someone reported you for violating our Terms of Use we would have looked into that report, if validated then a Game Master may contact you in-game though they would also send an e-mail with more details regarding the violation.

We do not require you to follow a link and log in with the ultimatum that if you do not we will close your account. More information on these types of whispers and how to recognize when a Game Master contacts you can be found in the following Support Article.

If you receive such whispers in the future please right click on their name in the chat window and select Report Spam. It will be looked into right away.

As for now I would highly recommend that you change your password at the least.

Q u o t e:
Vrak, I think that is a fake link in the post, although you would know for sure. It isn't actually battle.net.


Thanks, Elfofshadows, I thought I already got it but I apparently blinked. :)

Dang it Vrak, just call me Elf!


Hehe, will do, I like to call people by their full posting name, unless asked to otherwise, or the name is questionable.
