|
| One player had his account hacked recently, and he see their were a lot of threads complaning how long it is taking for them to get their account back,cheap wow gold,so he shared his expierence and hopefully help some of you who need questions answered. So basically he sent in a ticket, this was the most annoying part, it took them a 7-9 days to sort this out and he actually only just got my master acocunt back today. He checked his Aion status page and found Status; Banned, so i got in contact again and within 20 mins i recieved a reply (which was quick). After they told him to make sure he had no viruses,keyloggers etc they told him to reset his AION account password ( even when its still banned) They then reviewd the situation and he got this reply: Hello, We have investigated this compromised account issue and found that a virtual property seller (real market transaction/RMT) group somehow gained access to the account and used it to further their interests. After reviewing this case we have re-opened the account. Please be advised that if the account is compromised again in the future and used for these activities it may be closed again. Because these individuals have accessed your account, it is now a security risk. We are taking steps to reduce the likelihood of having to close the account again and have commented your account as such.
However, the security of your account is your responsibility, and we ask that you take every precaution to secure your account, so that it is not accessed again by another person. We also recommend that you steer clear of visiting shady sites and clicking on potentially malicious ads or links promising free virtual goods of any kind. Please make certain that you are not using any third-party programs, modifying your game client, or any other 'illegal' action. Some common activities that may also show up in this detection include: buying Kinah from a third party company,ffxiv gold, using a 'Power-leveling' service, acting as a courier for virtual currency sales companies, advertising in-game for those companies, sharing your account, or having a hacked account. Many of these 'other' activities can happen if your account has been 'phished' by visiting an unauthorized website and entering your login name and password. Please make sure that you are very aware to avoid 'phishing scams', and obviously never share your account information with another person for any reason. Additionally, you should make certain that the *only* place you use this particular login name and password combination is for this game. If you use the same combinations for email logins, website logins, or fansite message board logins it makes it much easier for your game account to become compromised. We would recommend at this time that you should change your Game Account password, and it may be a wise idea to change your email address password as well. Additionally, if at any point in the past you have modified your game client in any way (GG hack, etc) we would recommend that you do a full uninstall and clean reinstall of the game client. For them to sort his AION acoount out it took them only a few hours which he was suprised. Later,cheapest ffxiv gil,when your account had hacked you should know this few Tips: 1. Have ALL information ready for when they ask you, these can include serial keys accounts, character names etc. 2. Be patient, it took him 1 week + for a reply, and it doesn't matter how many petitions you put in. 3. Don't be alarmed if you find your AION account banned, it was probably due to Gold Sellers using your acocunt to advertise. 4. Be respectful, when you send E-Mails and petitions remember these are people you are talking to, and as much as you are pissed off they are only human. 5. Since your account got hacked there is a chance you may have a keylogger, so make sure to either scan or do a FULL reformat like i did to minimise the risk of your account being re-stolen. If anyone has any question please feel free to ask uraion and you can buy the cheapest aion gold,aion kina, aion kinah , aion power leveling etc to help you level up quicker! |
