Here's a good 'un

Got a new one today, with the heading "wow gm gift to you" - which is nice.

Hello

 Congratulations! Your world of Warcraft account to receive compensation.This is Blizzard Entertainment's apology

We acknowledge a mistake, for you to lose the World of Warcraft account in order to recover our losses

We will give you 50000 gold coins free of charge and rare mounts  (Dark Phoenix), I hope you can restart the game

Login here to authentication, 48 hours you will receive compensation

Description: test account and permanently disabled can not compensation



Now, there are a number of interesting things about this one. The world's largest game, with support staff who clearly have little grasp of English? 50,000 gold and a mount as in-game compensation for an administrative cockup? "I hope you can restart the game"?

It's just weird, and brilliant.
