This is not the first mail I received...blizzard has sent numerous emails to verify details and so forth.
I do not have an account with any of the mails I received...
I did report it to the relevant parties and this is there feedback:
Dear XXXX
Thank you for your e-mail.
With regards to the amount of spam you received, our mail abuse department will require copies of the full headers to enable the matter to be investigated and action to be taken where possible.
The reason they request the message headers is to :
-review the RETURN PATH and FROM email address fields
-review the originating IP address and full path of the e-mail
This would allow them to :
-block the appropriate e-mail address (or advise accordingly)
-report the incident to the originating network for action
*Without the headers no further action can be taken.
***If there is a difference between the domain in the FROM field and the RETURN PATH, then the Return Path would be most effective in blocking the spam.
The internet or message headers can then be copied and pasted into a new email message to
[email protected]. I have included instructions for retrieving these headers below.
To view and copy message headers in Microsoft Outlook:
1) Right click on the email and select Options
2) Next to the Section called Internet Headers, Right click on the text and click on Select All
3) With all text selected, right click on text and click Copy
4) Create a new email
5) Right click inside the email and select paste
To view and copy message headers in Outlook express:
1) Right Click on the email and select properties
2) Click on the Details tab at the top of the window
3) Under the heading Internet headers for this message, Right click on the text and click on Select All
4) With all text selected, right click on text and click Copy
5) Create a new email
6) Right Click inside the email and select paste.
Please contact us should you require any further technical assistance.
Kind Regards
