So, was this a scam?

This whisper I got in game worries me. I'm pretty sure it's a scam, but I'm still kind of worried that it isn't and I'm in trouble.

I was playing on my main today, and got a whisper telling me that "my account got complained about", or something along that line. It also told me to go to some website, which I won't mention here for the safety of others accounts. I thought it may have been a key logger, so I didn't go to it.

I didn't report it because I was slightly weirded out when it happened.

So, scam or no?

Q u o t e:
Yes it was a scam.

A real Blizz rep will ALWAYS have a blue Blizz 'icon' next to their names. Blizz will also send you information via emails, Not some random ingame message.

***Quoted for Turtle***

It is important to note, Bryania, that our Game Masters will be clearly identifiable when chatting with you in-game. The biggest thing to note would be the "Blizz" icon next to the Game Master's name, which cannot be replicated. It would look similar to this: (http://us.blizzard.com/support/image.html?locale=en_US&id=81). If you do not see this symbol, then the person speaking to you is not a Game Master.
