Some one also asked why would some one steal wow accounts and not paypal/bank info. They are very strict about identity theft / stealing real life money you are looking at big fines and jail time if convicted. Virtual currency has very little policing in the U.S. the enforcers are the game makers and they just ban the account. I belive China was the first and Korea is following in procesecuting people for virtual crimes. Why risk the jail time of stealing your bank info, when one could steal many WoW accounts and make several hundred dollars per account with no risk if they are caught.
I was speaking more of the problem people had with iphones dying, taking the auth app with it, where my authenticator is more reliable in that sense.
