STORY : getting hacked
Posted: Sat Jun 23, 2007 5:50 pm
hey i just wanted to let everyone who gets hacked know that hackers sometimes can be reasoned with. Even though it's pretty much one sided with them controlling your account, their still humans and can feel emotions and in my story i'll tell you what happened to me so grab some snacks or whatever you want and take some time to read this ^ _ ^.
A couple days ago i was on silk road and stalled for the day. Just getting ready for work from 4-8 p.m and get my shift over. Afterwards i noticed silk road closed down for some reason and showed an error message with all those ??????? on it. Also i missed 5 calls and 17 i.ms so i knew something was up. I found out my account got hacked that day and some guy had been tagging me for a long time. Obviously i didn't know what to do as my main char was on with a premium,pet, and sp gold card. I made a new character to find out why he had taken my account and got an arrogant answer. It was until at this point people said to give up and so i did for a period of time. After 3 days i had fulling given up hope of ever getting my lvl 68 character back since the guy told me he had put him in murder status and emptied out my bank until my friend started talking to the other guy who had originally thought of hacking me that was on my character. She talked to the hacker overall 6 hours until he started to feel horrible for what he had done since i was a guild leader lvl 3 with great members and had a good union that was worried about me. Anyway with her the only one trying to get me back from quitting, i told her to just forget about him and try to move on. Even when i gave up she kept going on and wouldn't drop it until my character was back to me. One day i got home from work and saw 4 i.ms from my friend that i should talk to her ASAP. Curious, i called her up and found out she had made the person feel so bad that the guy hacked his own friend and got me my account back with everything on it since he bought gold for me and sold his lvl 75. From that day i still thank my friend.
from this experience it can show people kindness can go a long way and never to give up on people cause you never know in the end
