This is bull.

So i need a serious boost. And i decide to get hitched, Don't know the girl, Don't care, We both needed that love buff. Everything works out pretty well.

But then one day she says she wants to gift me something, And asks my ID, naturally, I saw no danger, It wasn't even my e-mail.

I give it to her, Unsuspecting that this girl was the most devious hacker i've ever dealt with.

So i try and log on the next day, Get the "wrong password" routine.
So i go to the site and file for a stolen password, Get the email and change it back.
Well, As i get on my char. about 15g+ missing from my storage, But nothing else. Not all my +9 equips, Not the godly 70 gear, Nothing.
The question is, Could a keylogger be the reason my password got figured out, Or is there more to it?
Perhaps some place you go to insert ID and obtain the password for it?
I dunno, I'm just glad to have my acc. secure again.
What do you guys think?

Good thing to this is that in-game money can be replenished, but the REAL money involved in getting your gears to +9 didnt got stolen. Consider yourself lucky. I had a friend who got stripped right down to the skin when he gave his account to somebody he thought he could trust.

And if im going to be the hacker-wanna be, i would start guessing on the IGN name (passwords are closely related to it), trial and error (guessing), or whatever.

Well, lets just be thankful it didnt go from bad to worst for you. Lesson learned you might say

[Senyx The Soulless one]

Perhaps, But it gives me this sinking feeling that ID stealing could become very common among acc. stealers.

And as for my SC items, YEah, thank god THOSE weren't taken, I could easily remake 15g just by selling that axe.
And i have 30 day extenders, outfits and all that too.

Just change your password constantly like I do. Mine is every 2-3 days or whenever I get a random gift (happens often).

People will never need your email for your ID. They just need your ID. You can sign onto the game using your email or ID, but when sharing info with other players, only use your ID.

It is possible for keyloggers to get your info. If you think that's it, I'd scan your computer thoroughly to see what you get. Cuz if its a keylogger, they could just get your email again. lvra had an issue like that.

Then there was some person on here who claimed he could highjack peoples accounts.

Scanned with my uber-Antivirus, No keyloggers or anything.
I'm gonna take a guess and say that if you have the ID, you can work from there to obtain more info.
I guess It's just not the safe, fun Fiesta it used to be. -Sigh-
Luckily, My 60$+ worth of CS items are still intact, in a third item bag, I guess they did'nt notice it. Because an Iron Case is pretty darn expensive. ($20, If my math is right)
Apparently, The hacker had me since thursday, And i had not logged on again until sunday morning, Around 11:00 AM, When i did, after fixing all the passwords and info, I found my gold was gone, I was no longer in Valkjestic (The best guild in the Apoline, No joke) And that i had almost FIVE HUNDRED kill points. Do you know how many i had when i left? Hmm?

SEVEN.

Seriously messed up hacker.
But they leveled me up, lol. I won in the end.
