I've been hacked.

So, Basil. I've been hacked. Frankly, I have an idea who it is, and all my characters are still on the rankings, but I'm not sure about my equips or my nx.

The sad thing is, the person changed my main emails account, and my accounts password, so there's no way I can get it back. (Or is there?) If so, I need your help. I've tried resetting my password on the main site, and on hotmail, but I can't seem to get it. Advice on what to do would be helpful. Thanks.

I think there is a hotmail conspiracy because i'm getting e-mails form friends about stupid stuff that they wouldn't normally send me
EDIT: like i get e-mails from my sister and she never sends me e-mails. I also did a scan which found 50 spywares.
EDIT: e-mail was something about tripod if you were wondering

Do you live with your friends or anything? Or went to the internet cafe?

You were possibly keylogged. Also i don't think there's a conspiracy going on about hotmail accounts getting hacked.

You're only level 12, I'm sure you can restart.

Umm, I doubt the person could have changed your email in the amout of time given, in order to change your email for your mains account you have to send a ticket, thus also providing a good explanation to why you should have your email account changed. So it would usually take about 4-7 days just for them to reset your email address, giving you enough time to change your password back.

"Recent hotmail conspericy?" hotmail is known to most as one of the most insecure email services out there. While they did beef up security numerous times, its still exploitable. Which if i may hint is whats going on 99% of the time now.

@vSolo: That's actually quite possible. Except, I haven't been on that email recently. I have been on other emails, and they're all fine.

@GreenKilla: I just said people having it, not necessarily getting on it.

[quote=jakelong4]Ask the person who hacked u to give it back =)[/quote]

I'm not sure if said person took it. And, we haven't talked for months, and if I just go accusing people, they can easily deny it.

@GreenKilla: There's a difference between 1 person having it, and hundreds.
