tigerpawz Keen I would recommend you change your password immediately.

I doubt if you can but there is no harm in telling LR what happened and see what they say.
How was it hacked anyway, any ideas?

you need to contact Linden Labs, send a support ticket with all the details, someone may be able to tell you exactly how to do this, I'm not sure so I'm not even going to guess at it.

THANK THE LINDENS!! Cheers!! they did it for me! Now the way the account got hacked: Someone i know in real life was really jealous when i received access to someone's land, and could build my home there. Now this specific person used to be my IRL boyfriend. He logged into my account by guessing combinations of the password and succeeded in that, He talked to the one that lets me use that land and made all sorts of weird comments in broken english <one of the things i know from him is his english grammar sucks ass> and sent some items to him. Then he changed the e-mail adress my account is set on to [email]yourfuckedwhaha@hotmail.com[/email] and i got a mail about that from LL <automatic confirmation that it has been changed> So i panicked and tried logging in, sent some tickets and started thinking logic.. Ex boyfriend's name.. use of words.. smartness Enter password: yourfucked <as he changed the e-mail to yourfuckedwhaha> YOU are now logged in! -Changed e-mail, Changed password Repeated sequence of changing e-mail, and password again to something no-one will ever guess. Opened a ticket regarding the Account cancelling request, to stop that request Ding- e-mail from Lindens, "dear Tigerpawz we're happy you have your account back and have now undone the Cancelling request. Greetings" =D! im the luckiest guy on the planet now! XD |

And the lessons we have learned from this: * Do not make your password something that is easy to guess by someone you know (chances are it could also be guessable by a stranger) * Give the Lindens a chance to put things right - they can be responsive * Avoid drama in SL - it's supposed to be fun  I'm glad you got your account back, and sorry for the damage that this person caused, both in SL and emotionally.
