Long story short, I received an email from [email protected] which contained the following:

Hello,

Blizzard Entertainment recently received a request to change the e-mail address used to log in to the Battle.net account with the username (insert my username/email here). The e-mail address k***@hotmail.com has been specified as the new username for this Battle.net account. An email has been sent to this new address containing a verification link to complete the change.

Once the new address has been verified, the e-mail address (insert my username/email here) can no longer be used to log in to this Battle.net account or any World of Warcraft accounts merged with this Battle.net account.

If you did not initiate this request, please click here to contact the Blizzard Billing & Account Services team immediately.

Sincerely,
The Battle.net Account Team

The click here hyperlink leads to the following website:

I clicked the link without thinking and then realized my mistake. I received a warning that the website i was trying to access was suspicious and did not proceed to it.

My question is, am I ok, and what should I do now? I just did a scan with my antivirus program and didnt pick up anything. Help put my mind at ease.

Cantero provides excellent advice. We have some other account and computer security tips available on our support site. Some of them may be redundant to what you have already done, but I'm a firm believer in "there's no such thing as being too safe." >^.~<
