World of Warcraft: have you sold your account? Phising Alert

The latest phishing scam I’ve seen is supposedly from Blizzard.com telling me that I need to verify my account at World of Warcraft and that I’m not allowed to sell my accounts.

One confused 10 year old boy later and we see that accounts need to be bought and he doesn’t have even have a trial account.

Then a second email comes in and I look closely. That url that looked like a secondary Blizzard server turns out to http://blizzard123.idc177.com/ and AVG blocked access to it.

Full marks to AVG and all you WoW folk out there… watch out for the phish!
