Like the subject said, my friend got hacked. However, it was over a year ago. He's asked I post on the forums for him since he doesn't access to his account or the email his account was under. Here's what he has to say:

Q u o t e:
I had an old WoW account that was hacked before the battle.net thing, everything was stolen and deleted.

This was over a year ago, i didn't pursue an inquiry

The account to my knowledge is no longer being used, can anything be done to regain what was lost if I so wanted to recover it, including the lost items or gold, and the account itself so i atleast dont have to buy all the WoW games again?

I cant even email using the one i registered with as it is no longer active.


Thanks for your time!
