I had a scam letter once and it said the account was ban. However, checking the account status, it's still ok and valid.
Then took a closer look at the email and it wasn't an official letter from Blizzard.
This is how the scam mail look for me.

Greetings,
It has come to our attention that you are trying to sell/trade your personal World of Warcraft account. As you may not be aware of this conflicts with the Terms of Use
http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/legal/termsofuse.html. If this proves to be true, your account can and will be banned. Blizzard Entertainment may consider taking legal actions against your crime.
If you wish to not get your account banned you should immediately verify your account. This action is taken because we at Blizzard Entertainment take these sales quite serious. We need to confirm you are the original owner of the account.
This is done by confirming your personal information along with concealed information about your account. You can confirm you are the original owner of the account by replying to this email with the following information.
Use the following template below to verify your account and information via email.

For assistance please call: 1 (800) 592 5499
If you ignore this email your account will be banned permanently. We ask you NOT to change your account password until the investigation is fully completed. Any further attempts at a sale related to your IP will result in an immediate termination of your World of Warcraft account.
1.) WHY DID THIS HAPPEN AND HOW CAN I STOP IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN?
Account compromises are usually a result of the registered user sharing their account. Please take a moment to review the World of Warcraft Terms of Use at
http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/legal/termsofuse.html which state that your Password is to be kept confidential at all times and you are solely responsible for the security of your Password. You may not disclose your Password to anyone, or allow your Password to be used by anyone other than yourself and/or your one (1) minor child. This includes, but is not limited to, compensated third parties accessing the account to advance characters in any way.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Password, and you will be responsible for all uses of your Password, whether or not authorized by you. Also, note that the security of the Account is your responsibility. Furthermore, Blizzard Entertainment does not recognize the transfer of Accounts, and any authorized transfer of the World of Warcraft software (as set forth on the worldofwarcraft.com website) will result in the permanent deletion of the Account attached to that software. You may not offer any Account for sale or trade, and any such offer is a violation of this Agreement and may result in suspension or termination of the Account.
To help ensure that no viruses are present that may threaten your account, please regularly scan all computer systems that you use to remove all viruses, including Trojan files, spy-ware and key loggers. You can find links to scanners in our article about computer and Internet security tips at
http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=msi0504p. Also be sure to change your account password regularly at
https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/account.
