I got a very real-looking email on saturday from SC2betaUS@blizzard.com, notifying me I had gotten into the beta.
But, after signing to Battle.net countless times, there's no download there, it seems I still have an account lacking a very important Starcraft-two-ness.

I've emailed Blizzard twice to no avail thus far...
Meanwhile, is there anyone else out there who got fake golden-ticketed?

um... let's see, did you go out of your way to try to get one?

If not, and you didn't expect it, then you are most likely facing some kind of fraud though I have no idea why someone would do that. THere's no benefit that I can see except the joy in messing with peoples' heads.

If it's "@blizzard.com", I don't see how it could possibly be anyone but blizz.

Although I'm not a web-comic artist or game journalist, I did opt-in on my account, so I should've theoretically had a chance...
As for the the wrong account, I signed into the account with the email I received the invite from, I doubt I've ever made any other accounts.

And yeah, it was definitely a blizzard email address, on top of looking entirely legitimate.
