Hello, I have a bit of a problem: my account was hacked and an authenticator was slapped on it. Now, I am not the original owner of the account; but I did not steal it or pay for it. It was given to me by my old friend who quit the game back in 2005. I was 12 at the time and didn't really know anything about it being a TOS violation. I've been playing on it ever since, paying for it with my own money, and so forth. But I am still not the original owner. However, when the battle.net merger was done, the battle.net account was tied to my email and name.
But here's the problem: with my account hacked, I put in a retrieval request and I'm in trouble because they're asking me to send them ID. But I haven't talked to this friend in years and I'm not even sure if I can get in touch with him. So I'm very potentially screwed.
What do I do? Do I just send them my ID since my name is tied to the battle.net account? I can't explain it to them, because having received the account as a gift is a TOS Violation and I won't ever get the account back. ANy help appreciated.
