Dooo et:D:D
 
Interesting. I took a look at the customer service forum on the world of warcraft webpage and it says that the exact address you linked (although you retyped it as blizzaCd.com) is a legit address (without the R being a C, of course.)

In any case, the Blizzard employee says clearly that they would never ask for your password.
 
the blizzacd was the actual email address it would reply to. wowaccountadmin@blizzard.com was the correct address and it was put into the "Name" section of their email to make it look like you would reply to that address but it actually goes to blizzacd.com instead.
 
replying to those lets them know this is an active account and not a spamtrap...also gmail's security has been suspect as of late as many of these attempts have hidden exectuable html that phisers have been able to leverage. The best thing to do with anything of this type is to deloete it.
