You should get most of your stuff back...though the process is long and drawn out as Blizzard doesn't maintain the info in a very efficient manner. I would highly recommend getting the authentication key. There is also a mobile app for this, so check that before you buy. The mobile app is a bit limited in the phones it's supports. Blizzard security with just the login and passwords sucks big time. Most of that is getting hacked from their end, not yours (though they claim they are not at fault...yeah). Just contact Support and they will remove the ban and then you can contact a Game Master to get your stuff restored.

You shouldn't lose your stuff, but you might want to follow up with them My Account was hacked about two months ago, and I hadn't played in about a month at the time. When I did get back in, after changing my passwords and waiting the time specified by Blizzard, all my stuff was there, as well as about 12 other characters I didn't create. Since I have no idea how my account was hacked (although I possibly think it was through a guild) can't say what else to do (It just so happens that I had formatted and installed the full version of Windows 7 between the last time playing and the message re: my account :) ) Cheers, Rob On Mon, Apr 19, 2010 at 12:04 PM, Matthew Smith <[email protected]>wrote: > > So I got an email from Blizzard that my account was banned for spamming. > I've been too busy to play this week and haven't logged in for a while. > This sucks. > > Will I lose my character or items? > > A couple of other things going on that make me question my computer > security at this point. > > A week ago I opened tomshardware.com in my browser and it was logged in as > a hotmail account I've never seen.
