So you're mad over losing stuff in a game you don't even like and no longer play? Wow, that makes sense.
Forgive me the sarcasm. You still seem to be attached to your WoW characters and stuff (I can relate; having quit the game too but still keeping the times of playing in fond memory). Getting an authenticator is extremly easy, cheap/costs nothing at all and it's reliable. Since your account probably also has SC2 on in and maybe other games, you'll protect them together with WoW.
In 99% of cases of account hijacking, it's the person's own fault because of lacking PC security. You should definitely check your PC for mal/spyware, trojans etc. Also check your virus scanner, your firewall and everything else security related.

His main complaint is on the fact that he also lost his SC2 account. I know you figured it would be on there but I guess I'm just nitpicking.

I found out my WoW account got hacked about a year ago after I had quit playing. I took it as a blessing. One less reason to reinstall that life sucker.

You can't "lose" a B.Net account unless you're doing everything possible wrong. Especially not the SC2 part, since there's nothing to lose in that game compared to WoW.
Customer support will usually resolve the issue in less than 48 hours. I've experienced multiple (careless) friends of mine having their accounts hijacked and returned to them in less time than that (unless it's some kind of holiday). You message them, they take care and you'll have everything working again in no time. After a little investigation, they'll usually also restore any lost WoW items/gold/characters etc.

Exactly the same thing happend to me about a month ago ... blizz reacted just fine and i got my B.net account back in a day or two!
But this week i tried to unlock my "locked" WoW Account to give a friend my remaining gold - had to change my email etc but now my B.net acc is completely shut down even though Blizz send me a mail which stated i could log in again :/
Now i'm pissed too because everything worked until now and i cant play Sc anymore >.<
|
my main complaint is indeed my SC2 account, and thats what's annoying me the most really. WoW account, well they can take everything, I don't care, but its quite annoying being hacked.
I am going to get an authenticator from now on
|
Dude, you can totally get the account I just hacked off some kid - wait... what's your wow-nick again?

Google authenticator+hacked and you'll soon find out that they got even some of those accounts.
For example: http://www.mmocrunch.com/2010/02/28/world-of-warcraft-authenticator-hacked/
edit: I own an authenticator myself since sc2beta, because I didn't want people to take my beta away from me. Never got hacked. Just saying that it doesn't make you completely safe either.

god im so angry and annoyed. my password is worthless now, thats my TL password i gotta change, my Gmail password, my steam password, i have to change all my passwords!
Yeah, that's your problem. Same thing happened to me back in 2008 when I hadn't played WoW in a year. I used the same password for my email that I used for lots of random forums, one of them got hacked, hackers then had my email address and password, gg. Moral of the story is to use a unique password for your email address because if someone gets access to that, they have access to most everything else through lost password emails.

my e-mail (hotmail) is a different password and that wasn't hacked, no spam mail sent or anything, i checked. Gmail account is fine, etc.
Still freaking annoying, i want to get my SC2 back

Just email blizzard o____o
In all honesty, getting hacked isn't REALLY getting hacked when it comes to simple websites like TL.net, game accounts, steam, gaiaonline(lolololol)..
It's just your passport being incredibly easy to guess.
I've had that happen to me when I was younger and websites didn't make you use complicated passwords. I would use the same thing for everything. I use the same password for accounts I don't care about now or just make quickly, otherwise my password is extremely complicated now, and I've had no problems with it.
o__o Be careful!

yeah, my password was not simple lol. 3 capital letters, 3 normal letters and 2 numbers.
and i did email blizzard, wtf are people thinking im doing? crying in a corner about how unfair the world is?

Yes. That is actually exactly what it seems like.
In any case, stop whining and complaining, clean your computer completely(like people have said), change all your passwords, and move on. If it comes down to the fact that you need to buy another SC2 account, wait for your birthday or a holiday and ask for a bit of cash.
Any spare change/cash you have, put in a jar and just buy it again.
Or, ask your friends if you can use their accounts.
I understand stats are important, but sometimes it's easier just to get a new account. -shrug-
Edit: Also, you should try sounding a bit nicer. You're biting people's heads off for absolutely no reason, and no one is being rude to you, so.

Haha! I love how someone is understandably angry because people hacked his account, and the overwhelming response is to attack him. Have some empathy and calm down folks, he was just venting. I'd be pissed too.
