You are funny,making a pin will take 7 days and that hacker will try to hack me again…What i do till now?

And with a pin most bots DON'T WORK

This is the fourth time my account get hacked,i'm really bored…

I can see the alimentation chain of runescape:

Member Hackers>F2P Hackers>SRL Members>F2P SRL>Members>F2P

I guess im gonna buy myself a bronze pickaxe and continue mining ess :'(

And getting hacked again … not smart, how come you keep getting hacked anyway, does he know your recovery questions ? if so, message jagex about it.

First: Get a good antivirus program, sounds like you might have a keylogger; do a full system scan with it

Second: Set a good long password (mine is 20 random letters/numbers)

Third: Set a bank pin

Fourth: Re-set your recoveries

Fifth: It's easy to make a bot work with a pin: just add inpin(pinnumber) into the banking procedure


PS: Jagex killed passcrackers. They all used passlists, anyway; if you had a unique password, you were pretty safe.
The reason almost all online passcrackers use passlists is because true bruteforcers are too slow for online passcracking

My bet is a key-logger. I got a key-logger a long time ago, and had about 5 million taken.(I had a bank pink, but I was buying full zammy at the time so I left my cash in my inventory) So consider yourself lucky, I personally recommend SpyBot Search and Destroy. But any anti-spyware software would work.

Dude use a password generator and use a password like [';rt,[opethpfhn then scan ur computer with every free anti spyware on the internet, then change ur password + recovs
