I think its easy for bystanders to just say that.
But if you put yourself in the shoes of those who got hacked, Im sure the feeling would be furious+mood spoiled to play+feels like boycotting Blizzard.

My own experience my gold was in limbo on the auction house, after I used all of my gold on a buyout, not getting item, not getting gold back.
Luckily it was sorted out now.
I think its to be expected for an online game to have these kind of problems, but trust me experiencing them is hellish.

This might explain it.

It heavily points toward session spoofing.
Thats why only your last character is affected, but not your other characters.

This is an important reminder to those who have PSN accounts.
Generally, most ppl will use same password for their accounts for different sites.

Since the hacking of PSN, most prominent sites, Ubisoft, Sega and even Valve have been supposedly been 'attacked', when in actuality the hackers did was used the datamined passwords from PSN hacking and used it on several other email bound accounts of the effected users.

And the whole account intrusion happening right now might as well be related to the siphoned passwords from PSN hacking, since ppl recycle their password on all of their online accounts. sweat.gif
Online services which tied to email as a log in ID is highly susceptible to this, as the hackers have one less problem to worry which is acquiring log in IDs for said service, as email = login IDs.

So, if you had a PSN account, make sure to change your email pass AND your current Bnet account pass.

Here's an article that shows you how one guy stole passwords from other unsecured sites and try them on D3 accounts. He got around 10k hits and stole gold and stash from these accounts.

Lesson here : DO NOT simply create accounts on fan sites and 3rd party sites. If you do, please do not use your primary email and same password.

That's the main reason people's D3 accounts got hacked. Poor internet surfing habits. Blizzard's servers are secure as he says he cannot directly hack Blizzard's server.

Also : DO NOT BUY GOLD. You will only encourage people like him to hack more accounts.

Ya, besides PSN, this could also come from other sites that you might previously joined.
