Two problems here. The first is that they don't even tell me what the heck I apparently did that's against their rules. The other, bigger problem is that I do not and never have played World of Warcraft.

It's a scam. I've gotten several of those emails when I don't even have a WoW account.

These/This guy is really freakin sad. I have received a lot of E-Mails from these guys saying that I have initiated a "I have lost my password" process.
Although thid looks legal and normal, and I do indeed play World of Warcraft, the E-mail that received it, is not in any way associated to my account.
THIS IS JUST COMPLETE BULLSHIT.

Protip: Hover over the links, and see what they actually are, then report them to their host.

It's fake, nobody will EVER ask you for your password, ever.
Steam won't
Blizzard won't
NOBODY WILL, EVER
