Well... got an email about a password being changed from Blizzard. Calling them in a minute. I DO have an authenticator. so if they got my password somehow. no idea how at this point... they should still not be able to get to the account. I CANNOT get on to my account now and I'm waiting on the email from Blizzard for the password to reconfirm etc.
However, please demote Winterborn ASAP.
Thanks.

Just talking with Ervin over Vent, nothing has been taken from the GB and though I haven't been able to log on, or log in to blizzard/battlenet, I don't think they can either.
Wynne checked for me as well, Winter hadn't been on in over 20 hours and my paladin, Duchairn not on in 18 hours. I'm on "eterna-Hold" with Blizzard now.
THANK YOU WYNNE AND ERVIN!
Further update.... Account returned to me, I did get hacked but the authenticator blocked any other access. Changed my email address associated as well. Rectal exam of the computer found nada but etc etc. See ya in game.

Just as a note, I get spam all the time from blizzard and some of them are 'your password is changed'. Make sure the email you received from blizzard is real.
Next, where is your authenticator? Come someone at home have done this by accident?
I'd suggest having your authenticator or accessible (via maybe your wife) if possible
