Tsapluuna 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2017 Hi! Every time I log in there are players advertising g4wow.com gold selling website, what is the deal with this? Some people who advertise it are quite high level for a gold spammer, some are even level 60. Why on earth would a level 60 advertise gold if it makes your account banned unless your account has been hacked? Based on how many players advertise this website it seems that there is some real security issues with the server if so many accounts have been hacked.. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hurricane2 2 Report post Posted May 15, 2017 Yes they are hacked accounts. Get 2 factor authentication and you won't get hacked. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hudson 16 Report post Posted May 15, 2017 Numerous accounts were hacked as a result of a character and password database being released from a different private server project (and poor user practice of not using a unique username and password combination across multiple websites), and other accounts become compromised through poor user security. We are the first private server project that offers 2FA, and activating it is a requirement to recover your account after it has been compromised. So, to answer your question, level 60 players spamming for gold websites are almost certainly hacked. However, it is not a security issue with the server. The number of people spamming for it is mainly because we have the largest user base of any private server, which unfortunately makes us the most lucrative target for malicious gold seller organizations. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
