Those who doent understand french.. its like this:

I know you must be angry at me for stealing your account, it was a nice account with 500k ^^. To lower this frustration, i will give you my account.. he gave me an account (which is working.. level 20 ranger with 7k) and a counter strike account :|.

so.. he hacked me.. sent me an email.. but what can i do... i dont have my cd-key since 6 months cause i dont need the cd to play...

Another reason to hate the french (jk). Tell A-Net. They can track whose account that was because he was stupid enough to give you the passwords and usernames (and e-mail, for the gw account) and they can log his location possibly through the service provider and/or kill off his access and return it to you, if he hasn't totally trashed it yet.

he got his acc back in 2 days, chars were deleted though, but u ll keep the unlocked stuff (great yeah )

I think by logging in on his account, you've made yourself vulnerable of the next attack. Do not use that account. He can take it back any time he wishes. If you already used it, as you stated, clear it of all items and money (Give that to a friend), delete the characters, and forget it.

yeah never use a free acc .. this acc can be used to abuse ppl believing they ll use it and then u can take back the whole stuff

if the acc was used for some cheating like bots etc.. it can also be deleted while u r using it

We're waiting for you dude (i will imagine a brand new torture for you : a big swinming pool full of melted Camenbert with bad Basque separatits who will wait for you when you get out ^^)

And yeah that's sad, but reort it and Anet will give it back to you and you have a better chance to recovert everything (as he intend to play with it not to only steal everything)

I already emailed George Bush about it.....

Dear Rilder,

Yes, That person getting his Guild Wars account stolen is bad and we are preparing to take action, the U.N. will be sending inspectors to find out about these French Terrorists, but we can not go to war with them yet, for we are not yet done nuking Iraq, and Iran is on our To-Nuke list, so we will be sending troups into France estimated 2012, these French hackers will pay the price for terrorising our Guild Wars players.

Sincerely,
George W. Bush

P.S. Whats you Guild Wars username, you should join Americas official guild =)

Yea it is terible about what happened...


This is not an actual e-mail from George W. Bush, please don't nuke me.

Yes you need to report to ANet about that. They are the only ones that can get your account back without you hacking him. They should be able to help you no problem. That is pretty crappy though. I would hunt that guy down and probably hurt him pretty severly...

That is a little over the edge, though. I am sure the starter of this thread must have made him/herself vulnerable for this somehow.
Password must always be a set of random numbers and characters. Never use that very same password anywhere else (Not even in this forum, though vBulletin is very safe with passwords), and never let someone look over your shoulder while you type it, or even let them play on your computer account.

I almost forgot. Don't use secondary programs to help you play GW and other games. Secondary programs are botting scripts, and calculating scripts. Many of them have trojans or keyloggers attached. There is maybe more of this, but I'm kind of a noob in this.

OMG Check out my rank!
