Hacked Accounts Stolen thingsFollow

Hey yesterday was the last day I was on at 245pm. My step was on his account and said he had saw my warrior transferring..and didnt seem like me...I dont know what to do I only play my account at a relatives..I NEVER GAVE OUT MY INFORMATION... I figured away to ***** the hacker up and I went to sony station to change my password..which was in fact changed...Thank god for my Email Account Security..But I havent signed into him....Has anyone had a similar problem..will Sony give me my things back that were on him? My stepbrother contacted Zhat yet no response cant they track him down...:*( took me 2 yrs for where i was because of my summer job away from home :( VanillaPhaty...Gods Of Emptyness...

Be grateful. ;) My RL friends account just got stolen. The dude logged on and chilled on his characters, then deleted every single one of them.

Because you used a username/password combo that was easy to figure out, it's Sonys fault?!?!?!? How's that work? Yea, the situation sucks, but Sony didn't create the problem. Consider yourself lucky that you got your account back, with all of your characters intact.

Well, if you never gave it out to anybody, and presumably you play behind a firewall, how did they *hack* into your account?

Yet

So, did you or didn't you? Also, by the title of your thread, you must've gotten back in since you said, "things were stolen."

What does that matter, it is not their responsibility to provide security, it is yours. Just because you dont bother to make the effort to secure your system doesnt mean anyone else has anything to do with it but yourself.

After i took a 5-6 month EQOA break i came back with nothing on my SK and all of my alts deleted, thank god my SK was left

I dont see why hackers think its kewl to mess with peoples "game" accounts its just a game, if i had half the talent that hackers do i would be using it to make my bank account explode with cash =)...well not really but yea IMO hackers suck =P

I think sing got it to the dime. The majority (if not all) of hacked accounts are probably because people use their accunt/password from EQoA on The Station. Computer Hacks are endless and even a noob hacker could get your info.

I was just on SOE's site posting the Warrior 13,15,20 quest walkthruz, becuz zippoheads there like to lead peeps astray with bad info.

Anywayz.... I just went thru the first time sign ordeal SOE puts ye thru. Itz SOE's fault if peeps are using thier login name and password they use on thier PS2 login to EQOA!!!!! SOE misleads you, so to speak, they make you think you need to your EQ login info to sign up for thier web service! And the real bite is this.... YOU DO HAVE TO USE IT for the first time!!!! After a successful login, you should be able to change the password, just not the name. I would suggest you do change your password!

A packet sniffer could catch some info being exchanged between you and SOE.

BTW... Maybe I missed it..but no where does SOE says they are using a SECURE sever!!! Bad SOE Bad!

Diclaimer.... If you *** **** up... don't come bak b1tching me out!

:)

ya i got my account stolen too...

Ok, my buddie just emailed me back.... he ran a packet-sniffer directed at SOE's website. He says, "he saw my username" when I logged on, but that my password was scrabled! The funny thing is, he had to know the exact time I was logging on so he could run his packet-sniffer!!!! Hehe!!! I dunno... he and I are amatuers at this sorta thing, however, there are peeps out there WAY better than us, and with better appz then he has!

So, I still say your info could be had there on SOE's site! But, for the expertise one would need, and, be a EQOA addict too, just seems too far-fetched!

And still, I see no info that says SOE's site resides on a secure server!
