Last night I was logged onto SL building somthing, I ran to get food was gone maby 5 mins. When I returned I saw I had been logged off for inactivity, I remember thinkin thats funny i was only gne 5 mins... I logged back on to find all my money gone and all my inventory was gone except for a few thing, mainly all my creations i sell in game were missing!! I thought this must be a bug or glitch of some kind, so i logged of and back on agian...no help. I begian to contact the lindens but kept getting logged off for inactivity like every 2 mins, The second I filled abuse I got logged off agian. This time it said it was by an admin. Then everytime I tried to logg in after that it said I was no longer allowed to acess SL from this computer (my IP got banned). This morning I go to sign on and it says I am entering the wrong password, meaning they must have changed it. Just to clarify things I have never givin my password to anyone, EVER! This is my RL girlfriends account I am writing this message from, My in game name is pete pegler. I guess the hacker even whent as far as posting mean and rude things in the fourm. They were writen by pete pegler as an attempt to get me banned. I just want this mess fixed up and i dont want this to happen to anyone else either because I lost a great deal of money and all of my creations which make me money. PLEASE HELP ME!! O yea they also got into my slexchange account and changed that password.

if it wasnt you and they posted using your password and logon and stole your money then ll would have the transfer to and from your ava so could trace and also probably the ip from the post,s that were made.

Do you perhaps have an untrustworthy brother or friend ? It's highly unlikely a "hacker" cracked your SL password & SLEXchange password, more likely your own computer was used while you were afk. I don't think you're giving us all the facts, besides which, the only way to resolve this is to call LL personally and resolve it with them over the phone.

I live ina 1 bedroom apt with my GF, I got some food sat on my couch, which is right beside my comp. I ate the food came back and all my stuff was gone! My gf was at work, I have no router of any kind, my comp is not linked to any other one in any way. so unless it was a ghost....It wasnt done on my comp, the IP address's will prove that!

That's your first mistake, it would make your pc safer, not more vulnerable to being hacked as they typically have a hardware firewall built in. I'd never plug a pc directly into a fast internet connection without one personally, but I hope your situation is resolved satisfactorily.

I hope this is taken care of for all involved. Pete Pegler took down my sim last night and has been reported for it. He has been reported by all who were in the sim when this happened. I suggest if U did not do it you might call LL. Or, might this be a coverup?

But dont worry the Lindens can check who was on as you, the isp everything involved. So, I am sure you will be cleared if in fact you did nothing.

I just got off the phone with LL and aperentally Pete was up to qutie a bit last night...My act was banned I think for good, there lifting it now tho should take about an hour. As far as my items thats ive spent month's creating and my money....im not sure if im gonna get them back, I wonder how many people have full perm Items that ive created. It sickens me that this is what SL is like, Im still kinda new here and I just dont know if Sl is worth it anymore if people are gonna go to this extend to steal! Aperently this didnt just happen to me...

Your transaction log on the website will tell you exactly where your money AND items went. Just be sure to enable L$0 transactions and it will all be there in black and white. Take that transaction log and use it as ammo.
