mooka91 Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I have thought about this for ages (even posted as a suggestion on the runescape forums but they payed no attention) that to help us stop hackers/scammers is to put bank account pin numbers on the bank which is only setable and changable from your account settings Tell me wat u think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenPixels Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Similar idea's have been suggested before, but the problem with yours is that the account pin can be keylogged. The idea i liked was setting it in-game, you dont type it in, you press the numbers that come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos74 Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 The problem is, instead of "I GOT HACKED OMG HELP ME!!!11!!!!1!" posts, you'd see "I FORGOT MY PIN NUMBER OMG HELP ME!!!11!!!!!1!!1!!" posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Let's face it, if someone wants into your account that bad, it's just a minor inconvenience. The idea is that your password should be enough in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiseTSM Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Its nothing more than a second password. My Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_diggy Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I always thought of this idea for use with safes in POH's. You got a spinning roulette wheel attached to your safe: "Click use safe" 1. You click a number. (1-9 and 0) 2. The wheel spins randomly. 3. You click the next number. 4. 4 or 5 number input. But, like you guys said, "what if you forgot the pin?" Only thing I can think of is recovery questions (oh god), or bury the code in a random spot with a spade (lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffCevve Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 And you would have some clues then in you're bank so you would know where you dug the code... Only problem is you can't acces your bank :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gods_Zeus_3 Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Guess What .. If you have to enter ur Pin everytime you log in that can be a pain in the rear. i log in and out probably 10-15 times a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lode Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 I think it would be possible to detect a hacker when someone with a quite different IP empties all valuable items of your bank. This script shouldn't be too sensitive so someone can give away a phat to a friend without problems, but when a player would suddenly give away or drop all expensive items of his bank, something fishy is going on, and the account should be put on hold until someone can prove that he is the true owner of the account.

sin-will-win Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 i have seen a keylogger that, when you click the mouse, shows the coordinates of where the mouse was clicked, so an on-screen keypad wouldnt be good unless the number moved around each time the bank screen is activated like.... one time it could be: 9 4 2 1 7 0 3 8 6 and another time it could be: 0 3 7 4 9 1 6 8 2 just random placements of numbers so a coordinate logger cant tell what number you hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Alex85 Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 only setable and changable from your account settings Tell me wat u think Then, if they have your password, which they most likely will, they'll log into your account settings and change it. :D It really has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindblade Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Maybe u click ur pass in in the first place. But, they little keyboard on the screen that u would type ur pass in would randomly change into different combinations/formations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsteller Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 The problem is, instead of "I GOT HACKED OMG HELP ME!!!11!!!!1!" posts, you'd see "I FORGOT MY PIN NUMBER OMG HELP ME!!!11!!!!!1!!1!!" posts. Personally, PIN recovery questions might help. Let's say my PIN number was my house number. (lame number, just exampile) When you enter your PIN number, you get the question "What is my house number?" It's a little reminder for your PIN. My recovery question would be something like "What is a Destini music channel?" so it can be very vague (If any of you understood even a bit what I typed, I know your first and last names.) That way, it's kinda hard to forget your PIN. Thank the world for spell checkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
