Parasite Gene 'Flow'
This item is a relatively rare drop off of Ultimate Olga Flow. However, while the item, if one dropped, has a rare chance of appearing (instead of a monomate or somesuch), the chances of Olga Flow dropping an item is set to 0%. This means that there is no chance of *anything* dropping from him, much less the Gene. This item is therefore impossible to obtain legitimately.

Red Ring
This item is a relatively rare drop off of Ultimate Dark Falz. However, while the item, if one dropped, has a rare chance of appearing (instead of a monomate or somesuch), the chances of Dark Falz dropping an item is set to 0%. This means that there is no chance of *anything* dropping from him, much less the Ring. This item is therefore impossible to obtain legitimately.

Dark Flow/Dark Meteor/Dark Bridge
These items are created through the use of Parasite Gene 'Flow'. Since that item is not obtainable, these items are not legitimate either.

Legitimate Mags
Any normal or rare mag whose levels add to 200 are likely legit. Possibly duped, but likely Legit. Definitely hacked Mags are: Mags above Level 200, Mags with impossible PBs (2 of one PB, Grants, etc), and the Elenor/Elnoa Mag. To note, the Elenor Mag is banned online, but if you get one off a friend Offline, well, it's not legit either, no matter how much they may claim otehrwise.

Stacked Items
A stacked item is a usable item that has been stacked to more than it's usable allowance. An example would be a stack of 99 Difluids.

Weapons
Any weapon can be assumed to be duped if given, but not necessarily hacked. Definite hacks are as follows: Any weapon with more than 3 percentage areas. Any weapon with more than 100% in one area. Any weapon with more than -10% in any percentage area.

Tsumikiri J-Sword
While just about any Tsumikiri in the game can be assumed to be duped, there are legitimate J-Swords out there. With 23,000 kills while equipped, any legitimate Sealed J-Sword can be unsealed, turning it into a Tsumikiri. However, hacked Sealed J-Swords do not have this kill counter built in, and so cannot be unsealed. If you want a legitimate Tsumikiri, hunt the Sealed J yourself. There is NO way to tell if a gifted or traded Sealed J is hacked or not.
