    Well, someone may have set a Battle.net account up on your email. It happened to me on an old work email.

    Check us.battle.net with the email address. You can also call Blizzard directly to check.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    It does not look legit.

    Create a Battle.net account (or if you already have one, log in) at https://us.battle.net
    This is the calling card of WoW account thieves.
    If you really inspect that link I guarantee you it goes to something like www.battel-en.net.chinesescammer.ru/login.php

    Again, the easiest way to check is to login to your battle.net account and check. It'll show any transactions involving your account on any Blizzard game

    don't even have to do that. Googling "has purchased a World of Warcraft® Mount: Winged Guardian for you as a gift from the Blizzard Store!"

    turned up dozens of red flags.

    I have gotten like 5 e-mails in the past week about a Winged Guardian in my spam folder.

    I didn't even look at them, I just erased them.

    Any e-mail with with words "please verify" anywhere in it, pretty much says "Hi I'm a phishing scam" for me

    Protip;

    A true Blizzard promo email will always greet you by your first name (or the first name on your registered Battle.net account).

    If it does not 99%, of the time it is a scam. (Email can easily be spoofed with a @blizzard domain).
