A little background...

So i logged into my yahoo account this morning (Which i haven't done in months, but i bought a new home theater sub on Ebay, and ebay is linked to my yahoo account) The Yahoo account is also linked to one of my wow accounts.

So anyways... once i got into my email i see an email from blizz with the subject line "Account name recovery" (IE, someone knew my email address and wanted to find the wow account associated with it). The scary thing was THE EMAIL HAD ALREADY BEEN READ! AND NOT BY ME! So someone got ahold of my yahoo account info. Fortunately my Wow pass is different than my email pass, cause i'm leet like that. I called blizz and reported it, and changed all my wow account passwords, and my email password.

Lessons learned...

DO NOT use the same password for your email AND wow.
Change them frequently! Security FTW!
 
Wow!
