I've been hacked twice and all my stuff has been restored, including gold, pots etc within 24 hours - however much i hate Blizzard's customer service they're surprisingly good at dealing with this issue!

When my g/f had her account hack, she was able to get everything back within 24 hours of the gm contacting her. It was send in the mail and was abit of a bitch to sort out. If you don't have a authenticator it may be best to get one.

Now i am unsure as to what is happening, i logged elgareth 15 minutes ago to check what has been done, then phoned blizzard. I just recieved an email saying they have restored him as he was deleted, how can he have been deleted if i just logged him? Could i have been compromised again -_- ?

All I can say mate is when its all sorted get an authenticator, if you have a smart phone its free otherwise the keyfob is like £5 and well worth it.

Yeah, I was staunchly anti-authenticator for a while (I hate that they don't simply include it with the boxed game). But in the end I caved and bought one and it really saves a headache, it'd be a skilled hacker to steal your auth. aswell!

it is indeed, just search for blizzard authenticator and yes its 100% free but you will have to upgrade your account to a battle.net one if you haven't done so already.

Having an authenticator saves alot of headaches. If you got a smart phone I highly recommend using one for future protection.

I've been hacked as well, in the past hour someone has changed my password and got my account banned for exploiting the economy. I'm contacting blizzard now. :s
