Hello all, I got a invite to cataclysm closed beta. it was sent by [email protected]
I was wondering, Is this legit, and if so, how do i play it? And yes, i got a tab for beta on my battle.net account, i just have no idea how to play it.

Deathwing the Destroyer returns to Azeroth, leaving chaos and destruction in his wake. Unlikely heroes will rise up to protect their scarred and broken world from utter devastation.

To ensure you're opted-in and eligible as a potential candidate, you'll need a World of Warcraft license attached to your Battle.net account, have your current system specifications uploaded to the Battle.net Beta Profile Settings page, and have expressed interest through the franchise-specific check boxes.

In order to opt in for this beta test, you must create a beta profile containing your system specifications. To create one, please download and run the beta opt-in application: https://us.battle.net*******

The email you received, Skinofdeath, was a phishing email.

While players who have been selected for the Beta do receive an email, the email is simply for notification purposes only.

Q u o t e:
The best way to tell if you got a Beta Invitation is to sign into your battle.net account. Go to the section called Manage My games. There should be an icon for the Cataclysm Beta Client that you can click on to start a download. If there is nothing there, unfortunately, you did not receive a beta invitation.

You should always check the email headers if you wish to know if the email is legitimate or not. Detailed instructions can be found here:
