VickyFox 353 Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) If someone wanted to break into your APB account, and they hacked into your email to do it. That is a very specific way to go about getting something very specific. This seems likely to be of been done by someone that knows you. As StarGazer said, 2 Factor Authentication is currently the best back up. It is good internet practice to change all passwords ever few months, each one should be unique and used on different accounts. Honestly APB is a game which is 18+ so I'd like to believe that a majority of people here are adults, and are wise enough to no need a Public Service Announcements.

ScottDaniels 30 Posted February 23, 2019 Why is it that every time this type of thing happens, it happens to someone that doesn't know how to use punctuation? Maybe we can set something up were AI will predict who will get hacked based on grammar and punctuation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that you mention it - usually those who lie about not hacking also tend to have grammar and punctuation problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhosT 1301 Posted February 23, 2019 So you were "hacked"... right. Totally didn't download a free cheat that keylogged your login data or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genobee 143 Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) Sounds like you seriously need to be more careful with your account credentials. Don't go typing them into everything under the sun, don't download sketchy *%(&, etc. If you aren't sure about how to protect passwords I'd google some basic tips. Can't hurt. I highly doubt it was a database breach on LO's part or anything crazy like that. Probably something you did that you should not have. Now you are paying the price for it.
