Annoying fake emails

#0 - Nov. 16, 2010, 7:32 a.m.

Over the past several weeks I've been getting emails supposedly from blizzard saying from account changes made to what i got recently a a "account being investigated for possible account trade or sold".
I've tried from sending the fake emails to the site where they handle those but now they make new ones.

I am getting really annoyed not only cause I got to erase them and sometimes check them (the new ones) but what if i get a real blizzard email and I will think it was a fake, especially if it is an important one like an actual account change or account investigation.

Is there anyway to stop these fake emails from coming or see if they are fake other than clicking on the fake links or reading them?

Given those are sent out by the millions by individuals seeking to steal your information, we really have no way to control them, Jackos.

Knowing how to check an internal routing header is your first best defense. They can forge anything inside the body of an email - the actual routing information is far more accurate albeit a little harder to decipher.
