Blizzard Rep: Yes sir! You should get that e-mail in 5-10min
Billy Owned: That is all, thank you for your help!
Blizzard Rep: Thank you.
I've done this MANY times without them asking me why I was changing it, so, just say nothing about the account being hacked or anything, but if they do ask, just say you can't access that email anymore.
Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.
I can vouch that this works. Once while trying to scam gametime, the site kept my account. I just called up blizz and it was so easy to get my email (i didn't have access to the old one) and my password changed at the same time! No joke, it's really easy to do as long as you are calm and nice about it.
Just sold two accounts doing this, I mean think about it, they ask you for the information, you provide the correct information, you get what you ask for....
me:hi Can I get the email changed and the password reset on my account please?
blizzard rep: NO U CANT U F***ING NOOB WE ARE NOT IDIOTS U HAXXXOOORRR MAN GO AWAY

no it works.
i just did this on an account i traded over a year ago.
if you have the name on the account and the SQ/A they'll change the email no problem.
i was hoping to cash in on a great lock, but apparently after we traded he transfered it off the account :[
This DOES work. I have done it to recall an account scammed off of me while selling.
They ask you for your full name and spelling. The representative I had even ave me my secret question because anyone can find out in password retrieval - and made me answer it.
The e-mail got changed back to whichever I wanted, no questions asked. An email was sent to me giving me a randomized new password to the account.
This works 100% but if you do it too many times your account may get flagged too much and they might just freeze it.
