omg

be VERY careful, I got hit by it and lost my account due to a trojan. I had to no, but the ONE day that pass retrieval wasnt working, I got hacked. They got onto my account and deleted 6 alts + made my mage nude. I still had my gold though.

I went to activate my accuont (had to send them ID), and apparently they can't open it cause I signed up with the name "Alex Someone" and it appeared false. Now I have to go to a notary public and get a paper stamped for some retarded ****

oh well. im done with wow now
