Association of B. Authenticators with main accounts

**buddhistgrandma** · 03-03-2009

I had a quick questions regarding blizzard authenticators and scamming.

I have a blizzard authenticator attached to my main account. Now if I scam accounts, and I attach the blizzard authenticator to their accounts, and the OO is able to get it removed, will blizzard be able to see that both used the same authenticator and possibly ban my main account?

Thanks in advance

Not totally sure on this, but I think that it's one authenticator per account, and vice versa. Don't quote me on this, because I'm not sure, but it seems unlikely they'd let 2 or 3 accounts be hooked up to the same authenticator.

Plus it would be prety obvious who they would be looking for to ban

Not sure about your question but the authenticator can be placed on a lot of accounts. Not just one or two.

Yeah they will be able to see. Blizzard can see everything that you do related to WoW more or less. Whether or not you get banned, is only something Blizzard can decide. Also depends on what you did ^^

Well, just shows you I don't know much about the authenticators. I guess you can; however, I agree with parinoia that it's probably not the best idea, considering all the accounts have different names and such.

I dont think that they would, you could always lie and say that the scammed account was given to you by a friend and that you got hacked, ect. Theres always a way to get around it, though getting it removed from ur main could prove difficult.

Removing it from any account you have access to is easy. You can remove it right from the account management site. You just click a button and its off, the reasoning behind this is that you need the authenticator to get INTO the management site.

Ah, thank you buddhist for correcting me, i haven't had much experience with the authenticator, but yeah, one way or another, it would be hard to get into the account with the authenticator on it.
