Hey guys it's been quite a long time but I have to get one thing clear: I've unfortunately been hacked. I've never given out my password and it isn't a simple password. I've also never gone to "free plat" scam sites, so I really don't know how I got hacked. Anyways, I got on and found everything but junk and angel stuff gone.

Anyone have a clue how this happened?

Does anyone besides you use your device?

Doesn't make sense to me. The angel gear is tied to the acc, it can't be traded or sold, could be liquidated tho.

I would guess you either;
Let friend/sibling play on your acc
Have remember password on your device and someone easily logged in when you weren't looking
Or are sloppy in that you re use passwords and a less secure site was exploited.

I don't think you were hacked, if people could then the richest players would be targeted.

I don't have remember password on, and nobody else uses my device. The password that I use for PL is different from all other passwords I have.

Try emailing StG, they should respond in time. If unfortunately you can't retrieve your gear, I'll provide you with gear if you would like.

If items were transferred then there is a record of that and who it was on the receiving end.
If there's a culprit then they are traceable, email support- bust em.

Actually, since I think "Shelby" "scammed" your demonic set, it wasn't recovered. But here, it's a completely different situation, he hasn't got scammed, tricked, etc. never went to scam sites and gave info. Nor give pass or email. It's justified IMO. It happened randomly.


All for one, and one for all.

You do make a point here in that most people only get hacked if they give away their information or do something stupid.
However, this is not the right time nor is it the right situation to make this post.
It is not impossible, it is only highly UNLIKELY. People may still be able to guess your password, however complex it may be, there is still a very low chance.

And yes, it still happens. Why do you think Dragon Vanities drop?
Also being here long enough doesn't merit anything. It doesn't matter how long you've been here, simply how secure your password is and how much precaution you take.

I get what you're saying, mine has been the same since 2010 too and I never visit those 'scam' sites either. I can understand that he randomly got hacked though, all it would take is for one of his good friends to know a lot about him then they could guess his acct and pw.

STG/STS doesn't respond to anything, make sure to bribe them with some monies too. It's been a while and my case is still not replied to. Prob cause *cough* ████ *cough*.

As I said, it happened to me. I have changed my email and pass twice since it first happened 3 weeks ago, I lost all my endgame sets at that one. 2 weeks ago I attempted to log in and found it saying 'incorrect pass' whatevs. I checked my email, and these hacker peeps had changed my email and pass, it gave my a notification via email. I emailed sts, they gave me back my acc.... Pointless though obviously, it was stripped clean of everything.

My point is, I obviously changed both my email, and pass, and in a short period of time, I was hacked again. Yes, I did change my email address pass 3 weeks ago. I'm not stupid, this hack was fo real, and I feel for OverkillED.

I use an unrooted android device, with only a few apps downloaded... Ever. Including tapatalk, instagram, and pl lel.

Idk about overkillED, but I doubt he has anything suspicious.

Yeah that's what I'm saying, he was more than likely attacked by someone close to him since they have access/knowledge of personal thingswhichcould likely lead them to be able to access his account.

So the question is: Do you have any close friends that play PL?

Hmm this doesn't seem to be a problem, I have 2 friends who have ever played pl, and know my email. Both of them quit after 2 weeks, and they both suck. Anyhow, the only social network I use is instagram... And I use a different email all together for that.

I think someone that knows Josh knows that he enjoys playing PL. So with that information, he got for a job at STS and worked for a year to gain their trust. That's when he struck, stealing the account info Josh. But he still felt Josh might somehow retrieve his account info so he convinced STS to make a new game, Arcane Legend, to prevent resources from being spent on PL. Still, PL has more active players so he then went and deleted 90% of the PL population from the PL data base. That's why AL has 10x more players than PL. 2 mysteries solved in 1

theres an old rumor that somebody , commonly called the pl monster , often roams the lands of pocket legends in search of random victims . lol okay but seriously , lets not look at this in a way that only someone who plays the game wud have taken it , WHAT IF u have some enemies irl , and those enemies r super brilliant hackkers who can do amazing stuff like that and get into ur account . THEY wud have just looked at all the fancy stuff and liquidated it or given it away to random ppl ( assuming they dont play the game ) . BUT U MIGHT BE THINKING , THE ANGEL!?!? THE ANGEL LOOK FANCY BRUH!!!! WHY DIDNT THEY TAKE THE ANGEL , well , maybe they didnt check the vanity closet .
ik this is kindof a logshot thing that wud never happen BUT ...if it did happen...then tell me , cus i might be a phycic and i cud put this on my resume when i apply to become a detective
k thx bai
