Twice Hacked and ESO Cancelled

4 days ago I discovered my ancient LOL account got compromised is is banned till the 25h. Early this morning, after posting the last post, I tried to log into ESO and discovered that my account information was incorrect. I tried logging into the website and saw that my account was suspended. Then I received this confounding email message. (Sorry no pic but I copied and pasted.)

 

This message confirms that you have successfully cancelled your subscription to The Elder Scrolls Online. You will no longer be charged for a subscription on a recurring basis, and your access to the game will expire at the end of your current subscription cycle.

We're sad to see you go now, but we'll be happy to welcome you back at any time! Whenever you're ready to come back, your characters will be waiting for you, just like you left them. You can return anytime by resubscribing on the Manage Subscription page on your Elder Scrolls Online account.

Please print this email and keep it for your records.

Warm Regards,

The Elder Scrolls® Online Team

 

Just a couple of things. One, given the immediacy of my LOL compromise, I can only assume that this was done by a 'hacker'. Other than that, it may even be an Elder Scrolls Team Member responsible for such an attack. Very demeaning and just shows the state the online gaming community is in right now. I can only give condolences to those who have experienced this as this is the first time two of my accounts have been literally 'demolished.' Good luck guys! You're gonna need it.

    2nd post today, it's as if you don't like ESO, why would you play after your last post anyway?

    if for any reason your credit card company had to cancel your card because of a security breach or because its expired I wonder if the same result would happen.

    Let's see if I got this straight... your LOL was hacked and then you checked ESO and that was hacked too... so your conclusion is that maybe someone who works @ Zenimax did it?

     

    Does that really seem logical to you?

    Why would an employee or team member want to drive players from the game? How does that benefit them in anyway?

     

    I do not understand...

    That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!

    This is perhaps the most ignorant statement ever forced upon the gamer community.  I felt my brain liquefy as I read it.  My shirt became soaked with what had been functioning grey matter just moments prior.  I suddenly found myself unable to remember my name, where I was born, or even what occurred moments before wondering to this thread to find this nonsensical drivel wasting what could have been infinite wisdom to cure cancer, AIDS, world hunger, war, and famine in one fell swoop.

    Alas, that wisdom may never grace the interwebs for the entire human race to find comfort, healing, peace, love and joy all wrapped in a pretty package that once opened will usher in a new age of utopia.  No, instead of untold benefits to all of humanity we were left with the above statement.  In reading it, we have all lost valuable IQ points that shall never be replaced. 

    If this is a heartfelt and sincere statement truly reflective of your thought processes and personal believes, then I am afraid there is no hope left for you.  You are doomed to wear tinfoil hats and frequent websites preaching the moon landings a hoax, Oswald was mere pawn and the real gunmen were on the grassy knoll, Republicans are carrying out a war on women, Democrats are really out to help the middle class, and Tom Cruise really can have all those alien souls exercised from his by paying enough money to L. Ron Hubbard's followers and reading Scientology until he can recite it backwards in pig-Latin while performing a one-handed hand stand on his right hand while his left digs in his nostrils trying to find the lost city of Atlantis.

    Look we know AA is out, so we are going to get these negative TESO threads.

    Can a admin lock this thread down.

    I would say thankfully the OP is gone, but he may well be creating a new account as we post to do another such thread.

    Nope probably he was watching too much porn and his computer caught a virus, case closed image

    A simple suggestion check your security protocols and fix anything you have any doubt about.  I would also check your financial information as well.  This could potentially get bigger if they have access to certain information.
  • bcbullybcbully Member EpicPosts: 11,838
    Maybe mom or dad had something to do with it? Why would a hacker cancel you account? This is the first time I've seen ESO and hacked in the same sentence btw.

    9 times out of 10, if you get hacked its the users fault. Im not a fan of ESO but more then likely this is not their fault. 
  • mgilbrtsnmgilbrtsn Member EpicPosts: 3,430

    Whatever reason it is, getting hacked sucks.  Best check everything, change passwords, warn your credit card companies something is wrong, maybe get new credit card numbers, and a host of other things.

    Once everything is cleared up to your satisfaction that you are safe, resub to LOL or ESO or whatever you choose.

    I self identify as a monkey.

  • ThaneThane Member EpicPosts: 3,534

    you got hacked on two totaly different accounts in a few days, and you.... do what? blame others?

     

    a few generel hints on security:

     

    a) passwords like "god", "chaos666" or "1234567" are NOT save. change em. do some real PWs.

    b) hacked on two accounts usualy means your system is compromised, check for loggers and other stuff (or it simply means you should not use the same mail and pw combi in every game)

    c) no one but you is responsible for your accounts' security. you wanna blame anyone? you know where to start

    Oh stop being such a ESO cheerleader, Scot. Since I couldn't even get AA to download without files being corrupted on two seperate computers, I gave up and decided instead to resub to ESO to see how the game is going these days. Since that time the Scots lost the chance at independence and my cat's pregnant. This is all so obviously part of the whole ESO world domination conspiracy. 

    Though I have to say that since it seems stam builds no longer suck, sad Scots and a fat cat just may be worth the cost.

    What...the actual fuck IS that opening post? I haven't seen such...questionable thought processes in a long time and never on this site.

    Please, someone tell me that this is as bad as it can get in this place?
  • DarwaDarwa Member UncommonPosts: 2,181

    Awesome post, OP, thanks for the laugh.

    It made a nice change of pace from following the latest Cleveland Blakemore crusade ;)

    Go check his other post.

    It's some rambling incoherence about how ESO made some guy come to his house and buy his car, because he was an ass in-game.

    Really, his first post set the bar too high.

  • whisperwyndwhisperwynd Member UncommonPosts: 1,668
     Seems the ESO account only had its subscription cancelled. If it was hacked, wouldn't it be active so that the actual hacker could benefit from it? Seems odd.

    Go back to the threads that started a month before WS came out, this is the same old tosh.

    You can blame the Scots losing the independence referendum and your cats pregnancy on Molag Bal, that's what he is there for. :)

    Yeah I read that and I wondered why people were answering seriously.

     

    I thought it was just generic stuff copy and pasted with ESO added to the titles :P

    Change your password more often, and when you take a brake, make your password huge HGdfsdgdf3897875tnjgghHGhdds or something like that, something not even you would remember or type in again, or a keylogger could figure out is your password.
