Hacker playing a cruel game.

  If I was on Tarlach, I'd offer to make the person's life a living hell.. but alas, I can't. It's a pity you can't transfer all your stuff to another account.

  
  
  Yeah... I'd like to make a new account, but I'd rather not have to re-train my skills and re-do all the Generation quests. D: I've already had to do it twice.

  I think it's a lost cause to send in a ticket. I know a handful of friends who got hacked, but Nexon never helped them no matter how many tickets they sent in.

  
  
  Man, that sucks. I'll be looking out for this person/abomination. It still sucks that you can't do anything about it, with the "game" and with Nexon...

  He could've log onto your e-mail account and deleted them... Basically, if he/she hacked your e-mail account and knows your birthday (which you might entered in your e-mail info), he can use the info to retrieve the nexon ID, and then use it to retrieve your password...

  
  
  That's why I changed my password on my e-mail and also made it so you can't retrieve the password unless you can get into my alternate e-mail that's connected to it or if you have my cellphone. There wasn't one when I was hacked. Both e-mails have different passwords too, so hopefully that will help somewhat...

  Well, if the hacker is contacting those people, that hacker probably knows those people, which in turn, knows you as well.
  
  Nexon doesn't let you change your e-mail easily because if a hacker changed the email, that hacker will forever have all the information/password. The account will belong to the hacker forever. Basically, they don't let you change it for security reasons.

  
  
  I think is is probably very likely. It's quite rare that people actually get hacked by someone they don't know at all. If you don't remember going to any suspicious sites, it's even more unlikely someone you knew somehow managed to trick you into accidentally downloading a keylogger and you wouldn't suspect it at all.
  
  Anyways, that's just disgusting. -hugs-

  Thanks for the hug. :< By the way, I don't know if you remember me but I'm Nana on Mari. I used to be in the Wish guild when I played on Mari like a year ago. Unfortunately my Mari account also got hacked while I was taking a long break. ._. I didn't know until several months later when I tried to log in and found all my stuff gone..

  Ohhh. Yeah, I was wondering if Nanachi = Nana. At first I thought it was you, but then I thought it was someone else...but I guess it's actually you. XD Sorry to hear your Mari account got hacked too. O_O There must be something going on if you got hacked twice...maybe a site or friend that you're sure is trustworthy actually isn't. I'd say, be extra careful from now on.

  Are you in the Mabinogi Facebook group? Is your Facebook information restricted only to friends? This could be one way your information was obtained.

  I understand. My current character is the 3rd one I've completely restarted on. :/
  All I can say is I hope you get is resolved. or at-least, as much so as possible.
  
  God forbid I find any of that hackers information, lmao. Or anyone else with beginner hacking skills finds their info.

  Thanks for that. I was actually in the group. Just unliked it. :< My fb info is already restricted to only friends.

  Thank you. I kind of wonder who is the hacker's main char, because that person with my stuff was obviously a mule. He or she was holding the Eiry weapon. Guess I'll never know.

  Huh? How can you obtain someone's info from facebook? It's not like their account username and password would be there. But I guess you could get someone's facebook email.

  Let me draw up an example (not saying that Nanachi did this):
  
  Mabinogi Facebook group posts something about an update
  Mabinogi player comments and leaves a "xxx from xxx server here"
  Hacker sees this, goes onto the Mabinogi player's Facebook profile, which may be minimally protected, and finds out his/her e-mail address
  Hacker profits

  create a separate account for gaming or mabi.. keep the information on a secure place.. never login on websites other than nexon's, keyloggers are cake to get to someone's unsecured pc.. dont install 3rd party or mods that are not trusted (some mods will make your game better others will ruin your gaming life for sure), play mabi as much as possible on your personal computer only, and lastly the most important: never tell anyone about your login details..
  
  hacking is easy these days trust me.. screw internet..
  
  be vigilant, move on, smile and have fun.. owo
