Friends account hacked, person threatening me

Post by Zioko »

At 4:20pm American Central time, My friend ingame, known as "Caesar", started acting strangly. He said he was gonna be gone for a bit, and 5 minutes later he comes to my house, no armor, tools, nothing in hand. I tried contacting him Via private chat, but he did not respond. He started in area chat, saying "follow me", and he would not say why. He walked up to a boar, and started running into it. It 2 hit KO'd him. I then started saying in private chat, You can't be Caesar! He's not an idiot!! He then stands up, and runs over to my house, then gets KO'd again, trapping me in my house, as i am not equipped to kill a boar. The sends a message tomy chat saying TROLOLOLOL I HAXED HIM. I am at risk, as Caesar's avatar has things like tresspass and steal. With the boar outside, i can't retrieve my things from outside. Plus, Caesar was my friends main character. Please help, as i do not want to lose all of my things to a good for nothing hacker. UPDATE: The hacker just said that it was because caesar had raided a cave, and now hes going to hack me aswell.

Your friend can just change his account information. Report this to jorb or loftar.

memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=53

Also do a check for any spyware or viruses on your computers. You will not be refunded for this, most likely, but minimize the damage done to you asap. There is no magical means to suddenly know someone's password.

Is the land you live on claimed by him? If not they can't know his name. Also, is caesar also his account name or only character?
Hope you have a great day

It is strange, that's why I said to contact the devs about it. They can check what ips have been logging in and see who had done it, in the event of being hacked.

Are you sure it was the same Caesar because it's possible to name two characters the same name.

Do you understand what it means when someone says they hacked or have had an account hacked? It means they had their login credentials stolen. :roll:
