I will try to give some background information to what happened. This guy I used to occasionaly play with told us he had tried to install a third party program so he could run more then 1 copy of d2 on his computer. Said he got it from a friend 4 days earlier but that what he had gotten was a trojan. He then asked us to keep an eye for when "he" (meaning the account he had had) logged on. And "by coincidence" someone did log on to that account not too long after he told us this. Which I thought was odd in itself since hackers dont generaly wait 4 days to log on and steal someone else's items (or at least I didnt think they did). This hacker then did something I thought was a bit peculiar. He didnt simply open a game, dropped the items and left. He actualy opened several games and stayed there for hours that day. If he took the items or not I couldnt tell since all we could see was the game names, but they were passworded so no way to see what he was doing there. A couple or so days later this friend told he me had emailed blizzard and talked to someone there about his account. He provided them with the 2 email accounts he had, and the blizzard rep said the account he had given them was registered to a third email. He was told they could not provide him with the email BUT they could change it back to his own. And sure enough soon after that he logged on to that account and told us all his items were gone. The detail I'm having a hard time believing (and this is the reason I'm posting this story here) is: how likely is it that blizzard would take anyone's word in a story like this and change an account email?? because if this was the case whats to prevent someone from simply calling them, and claim to own someone else's account so this way they have access to their items?
thanks in advance for your replies
