There is no reason why we would ask you for this. Make sure you forward the e-mail and header information to [email protected]. We appreciate you taking the time to report this. =)

Q u o t e:
I didnt even look that far, the thing that gave it away for me was the link.

I removed it so no one would accidently click on it. but needless to say the link was absurd, and nothing near the simple www.battle.net that blizzard currently uses.
Very true.
Q u o t e:
The header that i needed to add in the forwarded email was insanely long O.O.. lol I hope who ever receives the email on blizzards end has alot of time on their hands.
I would hope so. :)
