Stupid Hacker Attempt

I JUST got this e-mail saying that my account e-mail has requested to be changed, the thing is, this is an old e-mail adress for my account (it has changed since then), but I'm still worried thtat something might be going on. But not so much. (worry mainly comes from a scare on Wowhead last night, that was proven to be OK.) but, the hacked was dumb enough to not blank out his e-mail address (he did the first time, forgot to the second time), so I figured I would post the e-mail here for Blizz to see, and possibly trace this guy or whatever.

Hello,

Blizzard Entertainment recently received a request to change the e-mail address used to log in to the Battle.net account with the username *************************(my e-mail). The e-mail address k***@hotmail.com (his e-mail) has been specified as the new username for this Battle.net account. An email has been sent to this new address containing a verification link to complete the change.

Once the new address has been verified, the e-mail address [email protected] (his e-mail again) can no longer be used to log in to this Battle.net account or any World of Warcraft accounts merged with this Battle.net account.

If you did not initiate this request, please click here to contact the Blizzard Billing & Account Services team immediately.

Sincerely,
The Battle.net Account Team
