ALL weapons GONE (from character and PM).. hacked?

[Tita]

ok, i hope i'm not going crazy, but here's what happened:

- last night i logged in to check up on things as i've been away for a few days. didn't do any missions, just checked my stuff, then logged out from my room.

- logged in tonight in the Variety Shop on Cylez... which of course, was wierd considering i logged out of my room...

- i checked my menu and found that ALL of my weapons were gone. everything else was there. obviously, this was even weirder, so i went to my room.

- same with my PM: all the weapons were gone, but everything else was untouched, including my PM.

- Items in my shop were untouched too, including the only weapon i had for sale, a Daga Cresa.

Has this happened to anyone else? is this another goddamn hack job? i hope its just a fluke or something, but i logged back in and out and its the same story. The odd thing is, it only happened to my Main. My other character's weapons are fine.

I plan to file a report tomorrow. Never dealt with this before, so any help, suggestions or tips would be appreciated (when it comes to dealing with ST of course).

gah ><
i've been having a bad week too.
i'm going to start writing down everything i lost that i can remember, just in case ST is nice enough to get around to returning them.

Looks like someone got your password. Anyone IRL know it? This doesn't seem like a hackjob.

nobody. my nephew hasn't played on my account for more than 3 weeks and has no way of logging on unless i'm around anyway. he's not suspect (i wondered about this too but its just not likely).

it's just so strange that only weapons were taken/deleted/whatever.


i'm also wondering about why i ended up logging in at the Variety Shop? did whoever it was sell all my weapons there?
i need to check on my meseta count. that's one thing i didn't go over.

Noooo, not Clobbersaurus! I played with you!!

It sounds like a classic case of someone getting a hold on your password... A hacker wouldn't leave you in the variety shop, would they? >_>

Which platform do you play PSU on?

If you play on PC, the first thing I'd suggest you to do is to thoroughly scan your PC for keyloggers. Then change your passwork ASAP.

Good call >_>

PS2
i'll change my PW anyway, just in case.

hey Gryff!
yeah i'm worried about this password dealie. no one knows it, and i dont share my memory card with anyone either. my ps2/psu set up is totally isolated and no one can touch it unless i'm around. so that rules out local suspects.

guess somebody just figured my PW and did a dirty deed? ;_;
