Fake
In-game whisper

Hi! You have become a Blizzard lucky player, 3 days later you'll get a surprise gift of the mysterious registered address *Website removed*

As you can tell that the english is very bad in the above whisper so its obviously Fake and Blizzard would never do this anyway and no one should belive in game whispers from chars named Blizzqe, Blizza, Blizzt or anything along the lines of these names.

Just remember, always use the "Report Spam" option when ignoring those whispers. It'll ignore the account and red-flag it (assuming more people do the same).
