Whenever you gain an account, do not change pass. Let it sit for a while, and secretly cjhange recovery questions. Next, wait for a couple of weeks for the recovery to chang,e and only then do you change password.

because the next thing he knows is BAM! Password incorreect! BAM! Recovery not working!

He can still recover his account if he can provide credit card/payment details, previous recovery question answers and past passwords. Only if he is smart, and chances are he isnt.

You got a good chance of keeping the account if you followed my advice.

Hmm, I say do what he done, but don't change the password and let him gain items and stuff! Then try and make friends with him in game and find out what he has, then BAM steal his stuff. Getting free stuff for your char! Only if you want to, lol ;) if you have a conscience then I don't recommend this!

Hope you enjoyed this rather boring post,

OR just check often for a few minutes each day and see if he takes out a Dragon Woodcutting Axe or something, then take ;)

I got a lvl 73 with the same problem

But the person who gave to me said it was a little kid's account
And we all know kids are not smart

Well, just change his recovery questions just to be sure :)

Like Farseer said, Dont change password before you change recovery. Once recovery is changed, change password and remove bank pin (if any).

The account should be yours then.
