Ive been bg'in in av for the past 2 days as almost every other botter how wants quick lvling or honor and i recieved this 1 hour before i woke up and when i logged in nothing had happend to my account(it was logged of while i was sleeping). So not sure what the go was or if this is a scam email i havnt gone to any of the links etc but they sent it to the registered email account and put in the correct account name so had me worried abit. Unlike what the email says the only thing i did was bg botting didnt exploit(guessing its a generalisation). But thought i would share with everyone.

Also this particular account has been banned 5 times its my vanilla account so because im a long standing customer they always give it back(morons) but i was meant to be on my last warning after they banned the raiders + officers in my guild(i was the gm used the guild to sell gold to guildies about 15 other players we all got banned but we got it back and im not talking small amounts of gold im talking i was moving in wrath and cata around 1 mill a week in gold i have 10 bots running flat chat on the server to keep up with the demand). Also to all those who who keep crying ban wave STFU it cant be a ban wave due to a banwave is bassed soley on the entire product(not a little here and a little there). My main account is what got banned however my 4 botting accounts(reduced my bots due to finding work in other services other then gold selling) + the ones im leveling for other players havnt been touched. My bot accounts run 15 hrs a day with 400+ items on the ah a day and have been doing so for well over 2 years now. Botting is 20% dumb luck, 80% setting it up right. If you dont invest time and/or $ into botting you will most likly be one of those caught out.
why would one appeal a 3hour suspension ????????????? Don't insult other players and you're fine.....
NEVER APPEAL FOR LESS THAM A PERMANET BAN. If you do they will investigate more yours acc and could let to a permanet ban.

Wow, blizzard have decided that instead of permanent ban they should just 3 hour, because if it's permanent then they don't get paid any moneys. Blizzard are like what? why permanent ban, we get no monies
Yes! Yes, this is a scam mail. Look at the email addres... Blizzard uses something like "noreply@blizzard.com". This is a scammer, just delete it
