Is my Cata Beta Invite Real?

This will also be available in the menu on the left hand side of the page for the duration of the beta test!

There are lots of fake phishing emails that pretend to offer beta invites if you "verify" your account.

Beta invites will be added automatically to your battle.net account in the same way that Starcraft II beta invites have been, so if you recieve an email saying its about the beta, do not click or follow any links in the email, but manually go to http://eu.battle.net and log in there and check if the Cataclysm beta has been added there. It will show up in the same way as your current WoW account.  You can see an example below.


To "Opt in" for the chance to be invited into the Cataclysm Beta (this does NOT mean you are guaranteed a beta spot), go to eu.battle.net and sign in, and click "Beta Profile Settings" and ensure you have uploaded your PC specs using the tool there, and ensure World of Warcraft is ticked.
