Incorrect username / password?

Making this post for a friend.

When he tries to log into wow, he gets the incorrect information error, as if his password he is entering is wrong. We thought he got hacked initially, however it turns out he never got any emails notifying him of password changes / any information changes.

He cannot reset his password because the battle.net website says his name and the account name (email) do not match, almost as if someone changed the email address on his account, however he still never received any emails from blizzard saying any kind of information was changed.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? What could be the cause? What should he try?

The others have definitely posted excellent information, Xsel. But I'd like to take a peek myself, as perhaps I can give some more customized advice. Could you provide me with the name and realm of a character on your friend's account?

As much as I'd like to be of further assistance, I'm afraid I can't get into the details of another person's account, even if it is on behalf of your friend. =(

Best I can say is that there are some mighty suspicious happenings going on, and it would be wise to read through the information I listed above.
