My brother and I are leveling characters together, and I asked zoia to borrow his account for my brother to play on. We added a month of time, and played for a bit, now the account keeps becoming frozen due to suspicious activity and we keep changing the password, but now my brother can't log on at all. How do we fix this, if it's possible?

probably because some one else is using "zoias" account and is logging in from another ip.

That makes sense, but who else would be using it? If Kaistine added 1 month of gametime, the account was clearly frozen; unless this mystery person has been trying to log in every other day to zoia's acc since his gametime ran out who knows how long ago, how would he have known it was reactivated?
In general, this sounds like a weird situation. Plenty of people have been on my account, so we've seen the "suspicious activity" message plenty of times, but logging into the email and changing the acc pw has always done the trick.
You can try to get the free authenticator for mobile, but I doubt that will actually fix the problem.

wow accounts are battle.net accounts, the different games the account has access to could be in use.

after you reset the password have your friend be the first person to log into the account

Zoia is playing starcraft on the account, my brother was trying to play WoW on the account. I called blizz and they said theres nothing to do. I got someone else's account so the problem has been averted

WoW accounts have their own IP restrictions - known good are shared across the bnet, but that doesn't happen for a while.
Authenticator -should- stop that from happening.. not sure if that took hold.
Even if there's only one recently newish IP accessing it, it still won't know it yet until a pattern of use is established.
