Stealing Boyfriend!

#1 - May 10, 2012, 4 p.m.

I'm not quite sure, but I think my boy friend might be logging into my account and stealing my gold to mail to his toons. It's never a whole lot of money, maybe a couple thousand, then I always get these smiley faces from his toons and he's suddenly wearing new gear when I know when I play his toons he's always broke.

Nothing else is ever taken, only some gold and after it's taken he ALWAYS washes dishes which he never does unless he wants to butter up to me.

When I ask him about it he always pleads that it isn't him, but I'm preatty sure it is. Any advice?

I will trust that the situation described is real and answer accordingly.

Generally speaking if only some gold is taken and your characters are otherwise untouched, it is likely that someone you know is accessing the account.

As the others mentioned account sharing is prohibited by our Terms of Use so it is important that you do not access your boyfriend's account and do not allow him to access yours.

Change your password and do not share it with anyone. Picking up an Authenticator will help with your overall account security.

it's Blizzard's fault for having crappy security.

While we do what we can to help safeguard player's accounts overall account security is directly in the hands of the account holder.
