To echo others in this thread, the same happened to me. The account was deactivated in 2009, and I used a password that I know to have been compromised in hacks of other services.

After several weeks, I got an email yesterday telling me that due to no further suspicious activity, they unlocked the account without Photo ID verification. I went in and scheduled the account for deletion.
