If someone put a key logger into your computer wouldn't they steal bank passwords and credit card numbers before wow log in infos?
Simply having access to a bank account or credit card doesn't mean they will pay off. Banks and CC companies have entire departments dedicated to fraud protection, and you leave a very obvious electronic trail if you try and utilize those sources fraudulently.

WoW accounts on the other hand, are a real store of value (no matter how much Blizzard or anyone else tries to say they are not), and there is very little Blizzard can do to stop some kid in the philipenes from logging in to an account that doesn't belong to him and slashing and burning his way through it. Thing is, foreign police aren't likely to take charges of fraudulently logging in to someone else's computer account seriously. Its entirely unenforcable on several levels.
