OTP works well against weak or leaked passwords. But it does not work very well against keyloggers or faked websites. Because if you enter the OTP into the replaced loging window then the hackers can immediately use it.This is why you should use a OTP in the first place too. Makes it nigh impossible to be hacked. Even if you flat out told someone your credentials and current OTP, it would prompt them with a different OTP they don't have access to. And trying to remove OTP is impossible without that one secret key.

This happened to me in WoW about ten years ago, OP. I know it's scary and frustrating, but you'll probably have your account back soon!
Update: Got my account information reset and changed and resecured! Now just waiting for the suspension reversed so I can continue playing again!

Glad that worked out! Next time if you see those tells, just ignore it and pass a warning to everyone about the “300M gil raffle” . Its a scam to steal your logins.
