getting hacked via Nexons website?

I recall months prior of people complaining about getting keylogged due to them logging into Maple Story via Nexon's website. People said not to log in through their website, etc etc. I was never clear if this was true, and the imminent danger of doing such. Anyways, I bought money through Nexon's website... around $85. That was the ONLY time I logged onto nexon's website, since I purchased it through their website. Google Chrome stated that the website was unsecured, but I still went through and paid. Literally hours after I logged off, someone logged in and deleted my characters. -_-;; My friends said they were on at the time, I logged on, they said hi, I had no response, and then apparently my character left the guild (i.e. deleted) So like, I've been playing Maple Story for years and I have never been hacked. I don't go to malicious websites or fall for scams, nor do I share my information with others. Could it be that I was hacked through Nexon's website by a keylogger? If so, is it their fault and I should get a compensation? Any tips? Really disappointing, considering much of that money came from my birthday like a day before.

Been using the website since they made the switch from game launcher to site launch, and I haven't been hacked. I still lock my account though, because I don't feel like low lives should even touch my items. If anyone tries to log on my account I get an e-mail alert.

Again, I'm not a foolish 12 year old. I know my websites, and I know where to visit them. I'm careful not to visit untrustworthy websites. I'm positive it hadn't to do anything with my own actions of me getting hacked. Perhaps it's a bold statement, but that's how sure I am. Until proven wrong, I have to point elsewhere; Nexon.

i doubt nexon's website could be keylogged but you probably entered by a fake maple story web site

Well I honestly doubt keyloggers are on reddit or gmail lurking to hack maple story accounts. I honestly don't know how else I could've been hacked.
