So if i have a balance on my battle.net account of say $100.25 and i never linked it to a third party to take it out, and some one hacks my battle.net account, will they just be able to link my account and take my money, or worse link my account, do nothing to my money but wait for it to rise then take it?

since were dealing with real money now, are accounts going to be more secure? Or is it up to us to insure their security?

Of course we always hope everyone is doing the most to ensure the security of their account, but what you're talking about is fraud, and it's far more serious, and dealt with in far more serious ways, than someone simply hacking a video game character.

Specifics are yet to come since they would mostly deal with the specific fraud policies of the third party payment company. Bottom line though is it's a whole new level of account support, which is no small part of the reason for auction house fees.

Q u o t e:
You can't cash out the e-Balance, so the only thing they can do is purchase stuff from your account, which Customer Service can always reverse.

Quite right! I sort of skimmed that I guess.

It's late...
