    i got hacked

    i noticed i got hacked by looking at the armory and noticing all my sellable gear gone (cape , belt, rings trinkets etc) and i tired my password on the wow website, it was changed. i cant play atm for another month or so, but when i do, would i be able to get my lost gear and cash restored by a gm? or will i not be able to, from reporting it to late or so?

    any info will help, thanks

    You weren't "hacked." You did something stupid on the internet, got keylogged, and now you're paying for it. There's a difference.

    Wait, you mean that shemale-beastiality-Draenei-on-Blood-Elf fetish pron I was looking at was bad?!?
    On a serious note:
    I think it is much too late, but you can try calling Blizzard. This is your best bet.

    It may be too late but blizzard is forgiving usually. Email them and send in the web form on the support page, explain your situation and hope for the best. It worked for me

    Why can't you do it now?? Obviously the account is active.. Reformat, restore your PC.. Then send the emails out, hell it should not take more then a few times online..

    Or did the person that keylogged you pay for your account??

    Friend had a similar case, cept it was more like half a year.

    Blizz replaced everything then locked the acc and had him mail in proof of ownsership + a notiery :-X

    PVP is a matter of overcoming your own weaknesses while exploiting the weaknesses of others.

    If you suck, it's because you can't comprehend the previous sentence.

    Now, now - he wasn't necessarily keylogged. He could have bought his account on eBay.
