Compromised PoE Accounts: Stolen Items and Hacked Accounts - Discussion and Leads
" yup same happened to me |

I've seen some posts on reddit regarding this and today I got this message from Google PW Manager https://prnt.sc/-meAy-cqkRdi . Needless to say I've changed the password and I was shocked that it didnt need an email verification to change it, a code, a link or something lol :D , btw this was on the poe website not steam.
Anyways , checked Steam loging history and everything seems fine , my account also seems fine on the PoE website. Weird to say the least , it's the first time I got that message from Google Password Manager and no I dont use any 3rd party programs for price checking or any other stuff like that.

"Just that it isn't only standalone client users that have got compromised, Steam users are reporting it as well. Kitty's Guide On Post Formatting - view-thread/1913874

@nfb04#2789 verry strange you mentioned that... I also had a guy message me to buy the mirror and put in exalts instead and I declined it. He did it two different times. I listed it on trade not exchange

Going to keep bumping this until GGG acknowledges all the hacked accounts properly.

he upper line found that all equipment had been stolen

Is it verified that people are getting hacked who do not use the standalone client at all and their account has no email linked? People who -only- play via Steam and have to login to the website with Steam oauth?

My account was hacked on Christmas Eve. I sent in a support ticket and have heard nothing. I used the regular PoE 2 client to login to the game. I took a break from playing on the 24th and when I came back it said I was logging in from a new location, but I didn't get an email block just had to re enter password. When I got back into my account my divines (78), a headhunter (One I had chanced and never listed), and all my spark gear (which I think was very good and not replaceable) were all gone. I checked my email to see if there was one about a new location, which I always get if I forget and leave my VPN on, worried my email was compromised as well, there wasn't.
Haven't logged back in for more than a few minutes just to check if my items and currency were placed in a random tab or maybe they got returned just as mysteriously as they left, sadly they weren't. I have read that the devs won't return any stolen items or currency, so I am not expecting anything to be returned or made right. However, I also do not trust that this won't keep happening so I have no motivation to rebuild the character and continue playing. Hopefully the devs find out how this is being done (bypassing the email warning as well as some users having this happen with only steam). Real bummer from an otherwise smooth launch. |
