Was Hacked then Shortly after BANNED

Hey GM team,

So roughly 4 days ago my account was compromised and the hacker seemed to only want my gold. When I logged in I noticed that instead of the 110ish gold that my rogue had, I only had 2 gold. So I made a ticket. When I returned from my vacation for St. Patricks day, the account was banned. The website says the account has been permanently banned with no reason or explanation.

Now as a side note as soon as I was hacked I immediately reset my password and made it much more secure.

I talked with some friends after about what had happened and they said "DO NOT MAKE A TICKET" because apparently the Nostalrius staff is infamous for banning players who report this issue because the staff will think you are account sharing.

Although I do NOT participate in account sharing I could see the suspicion in my account. I am assuming that is why I got banned because my account is constantly being logged in at my house and at my work. Both of which have completely different IP addresses.

You can take a look at my hours played, there is nothing suspicious about that. I play probably less than most players but I don't want my account to be banned because I have my 60 Shaman on the account also.

Please help me resolve this problem!

Thank you.

Sharpzy

I completely forgot to inform you that I have been a dedicated streamer and the only game I played on stream was Nostalrius. You might know me better as Washed, the name of my shaman who I constantly streamed on. I hate the fact that I did nothing wrong, yet my account is unplayable at the moment. Here is a link to my stream.

Greetings,

This account was banned because it was compromised as a result of the recent gold seller hack wave.

The ban has been placed under compromised account review. The review may take some time to complete. We will get back to you with a determination or more instructions in this thread.

Regards, GM Team.
