Silkroad Online Forums

One of the senior members of my guild lost his account today. They were able to change the pass and email. That means they got the account name, and secret question somehow. Yesterday a noob character was asking a guild mate about him too, what was his level, did he have sos, etc.

He didn't d/l anything so don't start with the 3rd party/keylogger stuff. He's smart enough not to go to any of the scam websites too.

I've been informed everyone was kicked from the guild except me as I'm the leader and the asshat intends to ebay the account.

To my guildmates; I'll reinvite you later today.
To the person that was hacked; I'm so sorry and will get you up and running immediately through the use of my other account or gold and gear to start you out.

People make sure that if you start a new account your secret question is difficult and that you use an email address just for SRO and nothing else. Too bad you can't change the question or answer.

Anyone know how to stop the account from being used? Contacting JM or trying the wrong PW too many times?

How does some random person figure out the secret Q and A? This has happened to me in another game, and it turned out the fucken guy was someone I knew in RL.

Sorry to hear bout the BS. This is the type of person I can HONESTLY say I wish would get hit by a train. If he can hack someone and Ebay the account without remorse, he's a horrible person. Time is money. Time is money...and your homie just lost a WHOLE lotta time.

Who's account got Rahurmed?

you need someone's account name and email. It will then ask you the secret question. Many of the questions are simple (like what's your favorite food).

I can't answer how the info was found out, or what he believes happened, he's not happy right now.

I do know he never botted or used 3rd party programs (VERRRY slow leveling), to my knowledge he never shared his account, he's an adult and computer savvy.

Noooo pinokkio



Man [/img]

yes it was pinokkio. Resser of the dead at yarkan.

Why is it always the good nice helpful people that get hacked?
Within one week two nice helpful people get hacked- pinnokio and Hito, really makes you wonder who is behind this if just random or it's someone they know or what

Another dissapointing day

its not that hard to get someones ID and email.
if they didnt pick a secure one.
just today someone sent me and email claiming to be a poll for a certain sro forum asking stuff relating to my secret answer.

I just loled

Pinokkio? I remember him.

I'm soooo pissed right now, and I can't even go home to reinvite people in the guild for 7 hours. I've got some gear, gold or an account for him if he wants to come back.

Well there are ways to get someones username....on the offical
SRO.net forums you can get their usernames by simply quoting them
it shows there username to you...

Also when my old account "Rimmer" was hacked it was because i was
well know...hell i was a SRO legend, and loads of people tried to hack me
finally due to the retarded quoting system they got my username.

and from there on it was a simple matter for someone to get my pw
lol...hell if you got to the SRO.net forums and look for a user called

"()"

lol thats my old account, the fu.king sh.its still posting with it...lol and when
he found my e-mail he even tired getting onto my msn...bad thing for him
am proteced and i got his IP address. not only that i sent it out to about
every gay porn website i could find..lol

If he cannot get the account back, he can chargeback the silk he bought and get the account blocked so the hacker won't be able to use it.

how do you charge back silk?

Am I the only one here, having the bad impression that hito and Pinokkio got hacked by same person?

lol love your sig....lol i love Tales of Synphonia....one of the best
games ever...lol playing it right now as well...hahha

but no not really....all hackers seem to do the same thing....

And get his or her money back.

Secret Answer is the icing on the cake, once the ID and PW are found, the email is in the profile... Your best protection is a strong password (often changed), strong secret answer (pray it never reaches this point), and an email address no one knows.

This is a free game and when first registering to test drive the game, most people don't bother to secure their accounts.

if u wanna destroy the account, use paypal to add some silk, then use chargeback. then the account goes GG.

its easy

they can get your email from SRF
and get your full name through xfire
and to get the secret question Myspace

NOOO!!! not him!!!

ah I knew it was myspace's fault somehow! lol

i know how it feels. i got mines hacked. i just made a new forums account just so that the person that hacked me, cant hack my forums account either.

Just search google for "pinokkio silkroad" and look at how many results you get. I'm sure one of his email is laden in one of the pages the results gave.

most of the acc where been hacked cuz they have SOS things and lots of cash

I WILL NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, GIVE MY ACCOUNT PASS TO OTHER PLAYERS.

anybody knows where i got that
