Yes, Kelasia, this is yet another “clever” phishing attempt.

If you continue to receive emails that appear to be from Blizzard, be sure to check the email headers before moving forward. The email headers will indicate who the original sender is. Instructions on how to check the email headers can be found here:

Also, several phishing email examples can be found here:

Please forward the email to [email protected] for review if you still have the email in your possession. Thank you for the report!
