StarCraft 2 - Image 1 StarCraft 2 beta participant hopefuls, beware! Some phishing sites are reportedly taking advantage of having hordes upon hordes of wanna-be participants by offering fake StarCraft 2 beta keys or downloadable betas.

If you come across any such offer, these are all FAKE. What this does indeed is that if you activate said keys, your computer will be infected with keyloggers, trojans and the likes. These phishing sites are so determined, they’ve turned to using YouTube, MySpace, blogging networks, and websites that are dedicated specifically for StarCraft 2.

It’s not true that Blizzard Entertainment is sending you spam mail, announcing that you’ve successfully entered the beta. Unless you signed up directly from Battle.net, then any confirmation you receive is not authentic.

So if you really want to join, make sure you head over to the official sign-up site for StarCraft 2, okay?
