Yeah, so just like the topic states. Since the launch of the b.net 2.0 and creating my account there, I logged on maybe 5 times there to check if I got an invite or something. Today I recieved an e-mail stating that I have changed my password

I guess the side effects of SC2 beta are starting to kick in...

It could be a fake email that asks you to enter your information if you didn't request the password change. These have been floating around for a while.

No, it's a regular auto-generated e-mail from Blizzard. My password doesn't work any more as someone has changed it

so you're beta opt-in profile settings say you're on Linux? Isn't that basically guaranteeing you won't get in (seeing as how there isn't a Starcraft II Linux version...)?

These six little numbers will ensure it never happens again. I got hacked once when I used to play WoW and then decided to get one.

there is a fake email telling that you changed your password with a link to where you could log in again, but that site is a fake site made to steal your account. your password wasn't changed.

hope you haven't tested that your password was changed in that fake website...
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

I'm telling you it wasn't that. After I got this e-mail I opened a new tab and manually navigated to b.net and my password didn't work

This happened to me once, until I realized I was just putting the wrong password all the time.

Yeah, this happened to me literally the first day I downloaded the beta. Now I'm stuck using a stupid name that whoever hacked me used until Blizzard implements new character creation.
