I wonder how did he get a @blizzard.com for his e-mail address though.

And? Those come all the time, even if you don't play WoW.

So let me get this right...The prince of Nigeria is wanting to help protect my WoW account and in return he will give me $1,000,000?

I just recieved the exact same email, same ip, only fifference was when I last "logined" my account.

I initially stopped reading at "logined", butwent over the rest of the message for grammar errors.These scammers sure are stupid.

And I really doubt Blizzard would go around looking at players ip addresses to see if one individual has been hacked. They would just wait for someone to report it.
