Good Game 1.8b

[Pinata]

One of my friends had my password, they logged on cleaned out my bank and traded 1.8b worth of stuff, including Torva and Divine. Anyways, I was kinda mad, not too mad as seeing I went from 300m-1.8b in about 2-3 weeks worth of dicing.

 

So for a few days I was like meh, and decided screw it, this person isn't getting away, asked for my stuff back, and no reply from the person. So I went to account help forum on the RSOF, and posted under account hijacking and also scam websites/emails.

 

I said basically this, why would I log on using an ip, in some other country, trade my entire bank value to "person who betrayed me" account on the same ip, then log back into my usual ip range in a matter of hours. Anyways within about 4hrs some noob account gets mad at me, cuz I always have my pm to on, I look on the hiscores and the guy got banned.

 

So I hope a few days of having 1.8b was worth getting his 138 with 20 99s banned. Apparently it was for two offences, account trading/sharing and account hijacking.

 

Anyways, I'm still out 1.8b, and I've drastically lowered my play hours, by maybe 3x less, it's probably a good thing but I enjoyed playing a lot of RS, kinda sucks when friends are just after online gold. Sometimes I feel bad though for getting his account banned, because to steal my gold how he did it, he was probably majorly addicted to Runescape, the guy even said he would send me pics of him cutting himself to prove he didn't scam me. I just told him to go outside lol

 

 

Anyways if you ever get keylogged/phished/betrayed and you know the person who did it, I'd suggest sending a report to account hijacking. If you get scammed through a trust trade then, probably not much you can do. It worked for me, you won't get your stuff back but at least the guy gets banned.

.....Im just gunna say it. That. Was. Stupid.

 

This wasn't account hijacking, this was you're poor decision to account share with your friend who in turn, took greed and robbed you.

 

Im sorry to sound harsh, but you deserved it for such a dumb decision.

Yeah you do know account sharing is also a rule violation, so technically we could copy and paste this to jagex as an admission of rule breaking and quite probably get you banned as well?

You do realize that account sharing is a very minor offense and you sound that like a complete [bleep] saying that right?

 

But yeah OP is was your own fault to account share in the first place.

So basically there were no winners in this story.
