Hooray! Free stuff!

I know a lot of people who have tons of mats and items and ecto and arms, but zero cash.

Pretty funny though. Just like Zaph said, be sure to check your passwords are changed often and unique & since they got into your account, consider changing all of your secret question/answer combos too, and to something other than what they used to be. Hackers datamine those sorts of things off of facebook and other social networking sites.

Since your account is linked to ncsoft, they have 2 of 3 of what is needed to get back in. =(

Hahahaha best thread on guru I have seen in a long while. I'm glad you at least have the means and supplies left behind by your hacker to move on from dear Aerynne and Cuddles, and can now let trevi live a rich lifestyle.

EDIT: Just re-read it because I liked it so much the first time round. Turns out, it was a better read the second time when I knew the ending . Again, best thread on guru for a LONG while! Was a huge laugh.

Great post. I almost wish my second account would get hacked this way, just so I could have some ecto! Just kidding. I'm glad this worked out well for you, and I am sure I'll see you around in a full set of fissure armor. Which will make me extremely jealous, as I am totally broke. Good luck with your new took, and if u want a questing/mission buddy, PM me!

I think your post is good enough to show up in WIRED or Massive Online Gamer. You should contact them and get your LOL's published.

Btw, ask Anet to have those IP's investigated so they can report it to the authorities. If they won't do this, you can probably open the investigation yourself by reporting consumer fraud to the cyber crimes unit, then Anet will have to comply by law.

At first glance sounds to me like it was the hacker who got screwed. Given the fact Romy takes breaks from Guild Wars for quite some time the hacker probably thought he would not get it taken away from him so he used that account as storage as well as a farming account. However it also sounds as if the account was groomed to be sold off. The account was loaded with green weapons, gold weapons, crafting materials and over a stack of ectos along with multiple decked out level 20 characters. There's no way of telling if it was the hacker or the person who bought the account which is unfortunate because it would be a 100% epic win if it was the hacker. If it was the person who bought it though all I can say to them is tough shit, that is the price you pay when buy game accounts from gold sellers.

I had to purchase extra vault slots to hold it all, since I was determined to delete the XXxXXxx toons. NCSoft finally stopped selling them to me, saying I had applied too many codes to one account in too short a period of time, so I have one bank vault left to buy and one toon left to strip.

All told, there are probably four bank vaults full of green weapons (half of which are Mallyx or Stygian), a fifth vault of gold weapons, a sixth with runes, tomes, figurines, jewels (?), armor fragments (?) and assorted stuff I did not really recognize. I also have a bank vault full of stacks of glittering dust and iron ingots, and a crafting storage vault full of ecto, bone, more ingots, etc. Once I can add that last vault, I can unload the remaining toon and delete her as well.

Frankly, I do not know what to do with all this stuff.

Good point! I guess I will be making an alt tonight.
If you are feeling to over burdened with your all that stuff please feel free to let some over flow over to me. I have lots o space in my vaults

Put it on heros.

All this wealth sickens me. If only they would take that attitude into the REAL WORLD. That's why I don't try to make money in games... just spend very little and instead you have constant profit while just playing the game in general.
