I signed up for world of warcraft like a year ago and I played it for 15 minutes and I was all "well this is shit" and went and played fallout new vegas instead. today I got an email, the gist of which was "Due to suspicious activity, the Battle.net account myaddress@gmail.com has been locked. To restore access to this account, please follow these steps:". Does this mean someone bruteforced my account, or is this some blizzard idiosyncrasy that everyone is used to? I guess what I'm asking is should I give a shit?

who would even know that account existed? it's not like I play all the time and have fancy armor and assloads of gold and my email address isn't anything common in fact it has a period in it

I tried to open a ticket about it like they suggested but you need to log in and I can't log in because my account is locked. fuck it, I was just going to ask them to cancel it anyway

I really don't, my biggest concern is whether my email address was compromised because I have it linked to like 8 devices and it would be a gigantic pain in the ass to change the password

I was concerned that they got into the email first, then went after my abandoned wow account. but I suppose they would have changed my password already if they had.

they can have my gear I don't think I got a lot of it in my 15 minutes of playtime though.

09-11-2012my account got hacked and merged to someones battlenet account after i quit playing in 2009, and its unrecoverable because merging to a bnet account is some stupid idea...
i found out it was stolen like 3 years later because i kept junk mailing all this spam bullshit from asian farmers saying rubbish and trying to get you to reply to a fake battlenet email with special hidden characters*call centre crew*

I don't care about recovering it I just wanted to know if my password was compromised because I probably used the same one I use almost everywhere
