Claiming I was a registered player of World of Warcraft, they wanted to me to take a survey to create the best gaming experience possible. Now, it looks like it could be 100% legit... But, I noticed a few things were off.
First, it didnt come from an email @blizzard.com
Secondly, the link led to a website that was not owned by blizzard.'
However, they said I could reply to: blizsurvey@blizzard.com, which makes me question. This email was not in plain written form, it was a graphic template with inserted links and text.
Lastly, they said I could check the privacy policy on the blizzard.com website, and the self-searched link isnt the same as the link given in this email. There are also hidden links to the ESRB, and the template itself is a Burning Crusade format I have never seen before.
Im worried that this is a fraud, and would like an answer back from a GM, or insight into this email as to if its phishing or fraudulent.
