My account had been inactive for over a month. My highest level toon is 58. Somehow my account got activated tonight (I did not have a credit card saved with blizzard) and someone had created a low level horde toon and was leveling it.
I have all the windows security updates/symantec antivirus/spybot search and destroy. All are current on their updates and I've done a scan with symantec/spybot in the past 48 hours. 0 threats were found. I got spammed on my hotmail account for over 100 emails from [email protected] claiming delivery status notification about a returned email. I never opened any of those and have nothing in my sent folder I did not send.
The person kept logging into my wow account and kicking me off and eventually changed the password on me. I then went in from the link using my full name and changed the password to something else. I did not get kicked off after doing that.
I'm running a trend micro internet scan right now and still have found 0 threats. Could blizzard have somehow accidently merged 2 accounts into 1? I have no idea what could have caused this and trying to figure out if my computer really is infected. It seems odd that a game I haven't played for over a month and have not put the password in for in that long was accessed. I have not found anything else weird or have any other accounts accessed that I've noticed. The 100+ spammed emails to me earlier today was the only oddity I noticed today.
