I don't know if this is an old scam-try. But I got some mail from "Blizzard" saying that I was trying to sell/trade my "WoW Account" and that I need to reply to that mail with all the my account info they will disable the same......Seriously....WTF...I don't play WoW, I just played the trial twice and I didn't like it. So I asume that somebody is sending this mails to tons of ppl just to try to steal their accounts or w/e they want.
So try to stay alert. Besides I recieved two different mails, 2 different structures and 2different IPs....but same issue.

Definitely a scam.
The one I've been receiving lately is "WoW free mounts program! blah blah blah insert garbage here blah blah give me your account info.
That one get spammed in tells though.
Any email that does not have my name on it but has "customer" "recipient" etc I delete without even reading the rest.
Any Email that ask for your PASSWORD IS A SCAM.
All MMO's have grinds. If you don't like to Grind then MMO's are not for you.
