are u sure its not lag? sometimes u get dced, ur account is still logged in to the server. when u try to log in at tht time, it will say something like account used or something.
*
nope, for sure, it isnt a lag or being used...
it is really being stolen...
cant even login to account management, thats already prove being hacked through in... sad.gif

QUOTE(dragna @ Sep 19 2006, 07:12 PM)
You don't expect Blizzard to reply your mail in just a few hours after mailing it to them? Give them some time, you are not the only customer that encouter problems.
Just relax, they probably will want you to fill in your real particulars (you did fill the correct information when you registered rite?) to retrive the account, so you don't have to worry that much, it other words.. whats yours will be returned.
He stated he couldn't login to the Account Management on the website too. So this is not a sign of lag.
*
yea, im really didnt expect them to work out so soon...
anyway they mentioned in the replied email, that they will reply their response within 24 hours...
but until now, already 27 hours ago, still nothing is been informed to my email... nothing... sad.gif
im start disappointing...hopeless... sad.gif
1 snap gone with everthing... cry.gif
thats all gone with my beloved game...

Well, all you can do it just wait, relax. Scan ur pc for key loggers or stuff like that in case ur email also compromised. If you really want it back, you can call them up.

thank u for ur suggestions, appreciated...

Erm, what server are you playing on?

There was a notice that some servers will be shut down earlier (2 hours) than the usual 5am server time.

I noticed I could not login into WoW website today.

You say you could not login, what is the exact message you get?

I think you were still online when the servers are shutting down... at that point too, the character login will be disabled.
*
playing on two sides, day time play at Oceanic, nite time play at US...

the server shut earlier is due to incoming BC expan which will release soon, they r working on hardware swaping...

i meant account management site, not main website that couldnt login...

the message was shown, is juz like v entered the wrong password...

even im not able to login into game, but im still able to login into account management website rite..??? but now i still wont able to login into acc management site as well... it makes sense...


QUOTE(RaptoR @ Sep 20 2006, 12:09 AM)
You need to remember the answer to your secret question. If you dont remember, the only way to find it out and to let blizzard release it to you is to call them.

They will ask you to provide info of your idenfication, address and everything that you registered the account last time and you will have to fax it to them. Once that's done, blizzard will send you the answer to your secret question. Then you can use the password retrieval thingy. Or, you can tell them to reset the password when u're on the phone with them. As long as you still have your email u're the only one with access to your new password.

Scan your computer for trojan and viruses. www.moosoft.com or nod32 is a good virus scanner, use it for 30 days trial~
*
omg... ohmy.gif
really couldnt recall back wat i hav submitted since 1 and half years ago...
btw it doesnt require to answer frequently as the time being... so i im clueless...

so, is this the procedures that r goin to b done for password retrieval..??
seems complicated, but nou how its to b done... anyway thank a millions for ur guidance...

as im curious that, r u being a victim b4, coz u seem to nou how r they had gone thru the procedures clearly...???

One of my guild mates' account was stolen recently too. We were doing raid when he suddenly got disconnected and coundnt log back in. Not too long before he figured out he was hacked. As he is a Singaporean so he just called the blizzard singaporean branch to get help. What happened was Blizzard terminated the account so the account hacker couldnt do anything further and the account was given back to him after being frozen for a few days to restore his items. Gold was only partially restored unfortunately (All his valuable items and golds gone when he logged back in).
The whole process took more than 1 week in his case.
There are also some other complaints made by other players in the official forum.
I read a Chinese farmer stole one of the players account and demanded 1000g to let him have it back.
BTW, there is a notice on WOW website raising the awareness towards spyware and keyloggers. WOW players better take some time to read it carefully to prevent getting hacked. Also get a antispyware or antikeylogger and scan your computer everyday. There're just too many sypwares nowadays. If u dont do so you might still get hacked in the future after retrieving your account...
*
so thats mean, i hav to call anyway instead of emailing them about this issue...
then only Blizzard will take actions rather than waiting them to work out...
FYI, 3 emails sent, up til now nothing about response or reply since 18/09/06... sigh..

i dun mind my gold gone for those f@#king farmers up for sale... there goes 4k gold i hav... sad.gif
as long as i can hav back my 3 lv60 characters with superior & epic equip which i hav put so much efforts to get them...
if those gears & items being DE, then gonna spend another yr to play again...darn it g#d d@mn b@$tard...

I have been hacked 2-3 weeks ago. u'll get ur things back in about a week of time provided u send a ticket to GM ASAP.

1st. u need to retrieve ur acc password from bliz website (forgot password option). A password will send to your email address.
2nd, log in to ur acc ASAP and send a ticket to GM.
3rd, GM will freeze ur account. They will request ur information
4th, U need to fax/mail (not email) ur photostate passport to them, and fill in an account retrieval form
5th, that will unfreeze ur account, and u'll get ur gear/gold (no enchant and no craps) in about a week.

Btw i don't know how if u forgot ur mother's maiden name and other information...

good luck to u.

edit: 1 more thing, u most likely have trojan on ur PC, get a latest anti virus.
or search ur pc for scvh* if u found anything other than scvhost.exe (this is a window system file) eg: scvh0st.exe (zero), delete the file .
*
hmmm..??
u meant i need to do those 5 steps to get bac my equips & items once i get bac my account...??
ticket GM to freeze it & send my details to them... & will get bac everything previously wat i had in a week...??

is kinda make sense tho, if some forgot bout mother's maiden name or secret question as they nvr ask bout it as frequent as u key in ur password everytime u login... unless u hav made an universal answer or u r a genius...
they r asking bout the question bac which i hav registered since 1 & a half yrs ago... 1 & a half yrs in 2004, clueless to recall bac with something not common to me...

well, u r rite mate...
i had kena those trojan virus as they run in my pc during playing WoW...
sometimes it minimize the WoW game while playing & show me a msg of scvh0st.exe had error & close it down...
bac then at that time didnt notice its a (zero) in btween the original system spelling which is an (O)...
anyway im too late to make it b4 it happens... sad.gif
so u guyz WoW kaki, pls take this as caution note to prevent u guyz being a victim...

FYI... latest...
i hav scanned with NOD32 which recommended by RaptoR... thank u for ur help...
& these r wat i got fr my pc, please take note...

these might b the trojan viruses which had worked out previously in my PC to trace out my password...
im not sure whether they r or not...
anyway b cautious...
i hav no idea where do they come from, where did i meet them up as i hav nvr used to download them b4 or even seen the at my sight during online...
walau ehh... jialat lor... sad.gif cry.gif

because u don't use ur real information, that's y u forgot smile.gif
blizzard response quite fast. i faxed the details ar around 12pm.. and i got my account back in around 3-4 hours (they will only be able to recover ur account after few days u unfreeze ur acc). and their email response is always less than a day.

the trojan is PSW.WOW.. that was the one on my pc before... u won't get everything back.. u'll only get back ur gear (without enchant and some of the stat will differ) plus gold.

i think i got the trojan from a link in wow forum.. the file is something like *.jpg.html
*
huh..?? email response less than a day huh...?? 3-4 hrs huh..??
i dun think so, its been already 3 days the email sent, up til now, no response... plus today gonna b the 4th day...WTF...??? mad.gif

btw what kinda details that u hav faxed to them...?? if its not confidential, pls let me nou, thanks... i think im goin to do the same thing u did, to get the acc bac ASAP...

i dun mind everthing can get bac... is already nvm... coz assume everything gone since the day i worried about... now im juz want my acc bac ASAP or even now, simple as that...

i wonder WTF r they doing so far with my reports around these 3 days... darn them, not even a single action has been taken after 3 reports were sent... Blizz $ux... got no choice now besides Tiuu them now... vmad.gif vmad.gif

OK this is REALLY WTF!
There is NOWAY my password could be WRONG again!
im using the password provided by blizzard..and 2nd attempt to hack?
Keylogged?

Damnit! Anyone experiencing this? Its alwez DC and the password will be changed..Possiblity of being hacked??
*
u better try out the NOD32 virus scanner to check out ur pc...
or reformat & reinstall bac ur pc...
i did everything all over with fresh copy of OS to prevent its goin to happen again... even though i already scanned & deleted them...
giv it a try in case something get worse...

btw u did call them up for account retrieval to settle this issue...??
FYI, im planning not to call them up, coz oversea's calling rate is expensive tho...
or is it compulsory to call them as this is the one & only way to recover bac my acc...??

aiks... so sudden my old thread pop bac...lol laugh.gif

well, once u hav faxed them correctly, u will receive an email at WoW registered email addr in about 4-5 day times...
might b longer than that, depends on wat kinda scenarios...
if more than 3 weeks still not receiving any email fr Blizz, means fax info not yet being received by them...
make sure u entered a correct fax number with country code...

note: can try to call, but i hav tried & its useless, cant go thru tho...
may b some 1 else knows how to call them... so pls share with us... thx
