Lessons learned today: Buy authenticator

[Littleburst]

I don't got an authenticator and it's been proven several times that people with authenticators get hacked just as hard. There are just fewer people with them then without, so it's a smaller percentage.

Personally i don't think you can do anything against it, but you can do stupid things to make the odds you get hacked bigger.

Even blizz posted somewhere on the wowforums that it's not hackerproof.

Yes, it's not 100% hackerproof, but it's a LOT harder to steal an account with an authenticator than one without.

IIRC, its not 100% safe if you have a jailbroken iphone and using the authenticator. So, if you have jailbroken your phone, just order a reg authenticator.

Wasn't there a Trojan/ virus on some NFL playoff website that targeted WOW accounts a few years back, similar to the MMO-champs thing?
