my buddy was telling me some "Scam" that takes accounts... it consisted of

emailing blizzard saying ur friend lost his account and they took the email too...blah blah blah blizzard emails u new password and so on. does it still work?

Why would you want to steal other's accounts?

And no, it does not work. It was just a fake email that looked like a blizzard address. So basically you are just giving them your account instead.

dont worry, no :D

Would never happen. Blizzard will not give your acct back to you under any circumstances even if you registered your e-mail. They have no control over it. The automated recovery system is the only way to have a pass reset.
