Me too. I had a WoW account linked to my mainstream email and I got an email informing me that blizzard was aware that I was trying to sell my account.

Funny thing is I never actually paid cash to play WoW, and only spent enough time to produce a single level 23 Night Elf Hunter.

EDIT: And I haven't played wow in like 2 years.

As a PSN user, dejá vu


Doesn't sound as bad as the PSN breach. Just Emails and hashed passwords being compromised. That being said I'm still changing my password.


The PSN breach was awful, I don't even know how you get that complacent in the first place as a group that just mass produces high end technology. I can't even remember how long PSN was down, wasn't it around 2 or 3 months?

Whats real funny is ... Did Blizz just name the protocol they use on these password protections ? Secure Remote Password protocol (SRP) - wouldn't that provide the intruders a would be starting point on cracking ? ... Or is that actually mis-information ?

EVEN MORE LOL - is if I look it up and see ITS A WINDOWS TECHnology!!!! xD ROFL

No, SRP is just a generic term for a few hundred different encryption protocols. It wouldnt help the hackers at all.

That's probably not from Blizzard.

That's a common scam actually.

Even if they had my password info from Blizz, I wouldn't care. They will in all probability not break the encryption, and if they do, my authenticator already makes sure they can't do crap.
