Xyntheyxz··1 votes·358 views

okay i was playing a game of league as normal when suddenly "my friend's friend" logged on and messaged me. i was going to ask if he could play after i finish when he said that he was a hacker and he had hacked the account. so i made a quick decision and instantly blocked and removed his account from my friends list. unfortunately i cannot contact him as he was my friends friend and now i don't really know what to do as i cannot report it because the account isn't mine. what should i do? also i'm really scared that i would be the hackers next target...which is why i removed him so he cant see if my account is worth hacking...

side note dumbest hacker ever who the fuck says out loud they have hacked the account

or maybe its a prank but from what i know of the guy im about 95% sure he wont do stupid pranks like this...

(no pics cuz im using a mac and i dont have any knowledge of how to screencap)

i know this might be stupid but im just trying to do good here, dont flame me plz

Download this https://gyazo.com/ it makes it easier to screencap a selected area like this https://gyazo.com/5c77a3583232643dc8afecde29420ef6.jpg you can make gifs and etc aswell

Also contact your friend and get him to get in contact with the account owner if the owner can confirm its him dw about it but if his account was hacked you now have evidence someone took his account and the account owner can submit that to https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us

If its not a prank and the owner can get access to said account he should change his password to something completely random something like 134opzlp301530139Qwornniuznrye94maizmlirona And save the above in a text document which he can CTRL + V later on

I wouldn't worry about it though as your silver ranked ( Just like me who knew ;x ) http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=xyntheyxz Whos going to take the time to hack a silver ( no offense but he could easily just hack a challenger if hes sooooo good and use that account )

Np I was taught a lot of things by the people on these boards so I occasionally post on threads like these to kind of "Repay" them for the time they spent teaching me If you're really worried though about your account being hacked change your password to something extremely random so it makes it insanely annoying to guess I mean whos going to guess BRWEJQWQELSAF10592QEWKnu502945 ( passwords are case sensitive I'm pretty sure so that helps ) and if someone was trying to guess said "password" I'm sure someone at Riot Games would notice Oh this person has ALOT of failed logins and probably put said account into "lockdown" mode which would send an email to the linked Address with an unlock Confirmation link

Now if you're worried about them getting in through your email just follow the same step and make it insanely hard to guess the account

Unless the guy hacking is a genius and can hack RIOT GAMES + have enough time to figure out all your account details I'm pretty sure theres a 0% chance of somebody getting in

So again I wouldn't worry about the account being hacked

Hopefully the rest of your day goes well for you Xyntheyxz

Gl & Hf on the fields of war fellow summoner!
