This is a new one on me.




Greetings!

In order to make our servers more efficient, we are taking the time to remove inactive accounts. We are mass mailing all email addresses registered to World of Warcraft accounts to target those that are inactive. If you are currently active in the World of Warcraft, or plan on picking up where you left off the in the future, please continue reading. If you do not foresee yourself ever rejoining us, please disregard this message.

Please take a moment and login to your Battle.net Account [insedious link here] to verify and maintain your enjoyable gameplay experience.

Be sure to tell all of your friends and guildmates to check their email, as we want to make sure all active accounts remain playable.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter, and your continued interest in World of Warcraft.





So really sorta scaring people by saying hey, ig you don't click this link your account will be purged.

Already sent off to hacks, just thought I would share.
