I've had it set up like that for years (and not just WoW, but any site where I need to register a domain). I've been getting waves of spam/phishing mails to various addresses. First to the one registered at wowif, then at wowguru, lately to the one I had registered at warcraftpets. I don't know if all those sites get hacked or if they work together with the spammers... In any case, it's easy to dismiss all the threats that they would shut down my account for gold trading if I didn't follow the link and log on ;-) Cheers Urbin -- Dun Morogh-EU (PvE) | Tunyatgong (12), Monk | Juran (65), Druid Urbin (90), Hunter | Surana (75), Mage | Greeta (65), Rogue Mymule (85), Warlock | Kordosch (75), Deathknight | Gera (26), Paladin Sunh (81), Priest | Taalas (85), Shaman | Vargal (42), Warrior
