i have read multiple times that to be on the safe side, we shuld NOT fall for mails sent to us that have anything else then @battle.net or @blizzard.com in the name but the thing is i am sick and tired of being sick and tired whit these mails i get about 3-6 mails A DAY (record is 17 one day)
ALL these mails have ended whit @blizzard.com or @battle.net that you guys says is "ok"
Link to screenshot from my trashmail folder:

if i would fall for these every time i would have lost my account about 3-6 times a day (nice?), but not being totally dumb i can simply just hover my mouse over whatever link they give me and see that its faked
faked links in my mail:

to someone not equally experienced whit computers and such as i am this will end up whit a sure account scam.
BUT! i must add, i recently snet a mail to blizzard that had nothing to do whit any of this at all, and the RESPONSE landed in my trashfolder how will i ever, ever, ever be able to trust a mail from blizzard?
i SUGGEST that blizzard never says that we should trust @blizzard.com or @battle.net mails, as they are so easily faked its sad.
don't you think that this can be one of the big reasons that MOST players accounts gets ""hacked"" ? they can even have the exact same look on the mails, the target of the link looks exactly the same whit the same "news" like the real site, its EASY to fall for this for an average user
---------------------------------
noticed that there is a blue thread about this so i guess this will be locked.
but still, 6 mails a day, and offical mails get lost... this is not good for me or you blizzard
