It sounds as if you have done all the correct things so far.  Now all you can do is wait.  When Linden Lab gets a complaint that someone's account has been compromised, they disable the account temporarily and then spend as long as it takes to investigate the matter and assure themselves that the account is secure again before releasing it.  How long?  There's no "usual" time.  As long as it takes. Since you submitted a support case to start the process, you have a case number.  If you return to the support site and click the Support History link, you can see the progress of your request.  You can also submit a supplemental ticket, referencing the first one.

In my experience, LL will put the account "on hold" for an indefinite time if it has been reported compromised. I've not reported one myself but one friend had her account compromised, it was put on hold, and after several months the account disappeared. She isn't the kind of person to ask about that so I don't know why it was closed.


Keep contacting LL and ask them for updates on the account status.
