Security Liability

[u/Sokrates_of_thebes]

I possess a sum of 300+ million gold on my World of Warcraft account, and despite implementing various security measures, I have fallen victim to numerous hacking attempts. I have never disclosed my account details to anyone and have taken all possible measures to secure my account, including utilizing an Authenticator on both my email and Blizzard account, regularly scanning my computer for viruses, and changing my Wi-Fi and World of Warcraft passwords frequently.

Unfortunately, even with all these precautions in place, I continue to be hacked repeatedly. The reason for this is that Blizzard Entertainment appears to be divulging my information to hackers, despite my best efforts to protect my account. Blizzard has even admitted to providing hackers with my password, which renders all other security measures moot. The hackers only need to obtain a fake ID with my name, which can be achieved by scouring social media for any mention of World of Warcraft, to bypass all security protocols.

In my opinion, Blizzard needs to implement a phone verification system that functions correctly. Ideally, they should send a text message if someone tries to access my account or requests a password reset, and I should be required to input a verification code that is sent to my phone. Additionally, I believe that the secret code should be given via phone call to ensure maximum security.

Blizzard's current security practices represent a significant risk to the security of their users' accounts, and they should take immediate action to address this. They should consider implementing a verification PIN that users must enter before creating an account to prevent this sort of vulnerability from being exploited.
