Damn scammers are getting desperate. I receive hacking atempts on my email almost everyday for World of warcraft since i unsubbed. Vicious hackers and scammers that want to hack your account desperately. Its an ugly sight.

I suppose they got the secret questions and authenticators so they get the rest with their keyloggers. They basically brought down blizzards security barriers...

Highly unlikely since authenticators automatically generate a new set of numbers every 20 seconds or so or every time you login to your account.

Ok, but think about it. How would your login know wich number is the right number? Obviously the algorythm for the login verification is stored on Blizzards files. The authenticator does not generate a new number every second like no one can see it. The algorythm is completely predictable on blizzards side, and from what i gather that info was stolen.
