Found out this morning that my old, defunct, World of Warcraft account (had not played since early release in April 2005) apparently was comprised/internally hacked. It couldn't have been a keylogger or trojan on my end because I hadn't played the account since 2005. Thus it must have been internal job. Someone went in, reset the password, and also activated a subscription with a Discover card I don't own. (I'm guessing Blizzard had purged my old credit information, fortunately).
Have tried to call Blizzard today at their 1-800 support/billing number, but keep getting either a busy signal or a message "We're sorry, all lines are busy" ... so I'm becoming suspicious this is not an isolated incident.
