I should start this off by saying that I never ever ever ever share account information with anyone else.
This was only the beginning of a series of events concerning my whole overall battle.net account.
Alright. So I filled in some forms on the Blizzard support site and took a picture of my drivers license and sent in to prove that I was the right person for that perticular CD-Key.
After a while they got back to me and allowed me to reset my WoW Account password. Great!
I thought I was in the clear. But a day or so later I get an e-mail saying something about changing my contact information and options on my overall Battle.net account. I try to log into it and I literally slam my fist into the desk when I see something like "please enter the authenticator code from the authenticator connected to this account".
The thing is, I do not own an authenticator. Great, just great. So it starts again. I fill in some more forms on the support site and wait for a response, all the while knowing that someone else can do whatever they want with all of my Blizzard game licenses.
After a day or so I get a mail back allowing me to change my battle.net account password. I change it but the problem remains. There's still an authenticator connected to the account that some dickish kid connected to it.
This time I decide to just write an e-mail to the support without going through these tedious forms. Turns out that was a bad idea. after probably 5 days or so I get an e-mail back saying I have to e-mail the EU support since I live in EU and that they cannot help me.... siigh. I guess that was amistake on my part.
After this I came down with a really bad cold and I couldn't for the life of me bring myself to care about this whole situation for a while. In the middle of this cold I get an e-mail saying that my frikkin Warhammer Online account options has been changed. Seriously?! Whoever decided to invade my PC decided to move on to the next MMO I have installed.
I got even sicker and couldn't do anything about the situation. Today I finally felt like doing something about this again. But just like that I can now log into my Battle.net and Warhammer Online account again. Did the hacker decide to move on? I was all prepared to start going through webforms again but it seems the authenticator has been removed and that my WAR account is intact and unplayed.
Seeing as I never ever share accounts or account information I have cleansed my PC as much as I can with Anti spyware/malware programs and I can only hope that I've removed whoever was invading my privacy.
This all started just a day or so after I merged my Battle.net account with my WoW account, decided to put in all of my older blizzard game CD-Keys into my Bnet acc and signed up for the Beta program. But I really have no idea what was causing all this. I can only hope that it won't happen again-
