Well someone keeps changing my password because they know the secret question answer and cd key, I don't know how but they do. Any info on this would help thanks.

Well, this account certainly has been through a tussle.

You cannot change those things, you can however put an authenticator on the account.

They are for sale in our store, and if you have an iPhone, there is a free mobile version.

Have you received any letters asking for information we'll never ask for - like your password? Phishes are rampant lately. We have an entire library of some of the more common examples in the Fake Email sticky above.

Alright, well I just merged it into a battle.net account. So I'll be a bit safer now?


If you used fresh information, there is another layer of protection, yes.

Well if they call Blizzard and supply the CD key and old secret question/answer and stuff will they still be able to recover it? Sorry for all the questions lol


They'd also have to prove they are the true and legitimate account holder. If an account is contested enough, it can sometimes be locked until identification can be provided.
