Well, that makes me sad. I've had one interaction with the AH, and it was that one. It was after I'd had my account hacked (which we can talk about some other time...) and I needed to regear my character. Still no chest piece :(
Although how was I to know that?
I'm not convinced there's any actual security breach, but Blizzard has been doing a pretty terrible job of explaining the authenticators to their players.
"While no security method is 100% fool-proof (even Authenticators), please note that it is possible that players reporting to have been compromised while an Authenticator was attached to their Battle.net account may have been using the Dial-in Authenticator. The Dial-in Authenticator does not provide the same level of protection as the Battle.net Authenticator or Battle.net Mobile Authenticator app, and -- more importantly -- is not currently supported for Diablo III."

C'est la vie, I guess.
