A few hours ago I checked my email just out of boredom to my suprise I’ve gotten 3 ArenaNet emails all titled “Authorize log-in attempt” and dated May 24 all coming form KR, Korea I assume. After changing account credentials I decided to manage my account to my surprise there were 3 different countries that have authorization to my account, Japan, Korea and Texas-US, I did what any normal person would do, I removed the authorized networks from Japan and Korea.

Texas US was listed in Current Login even though it did not have an Authorized Network. Even stranger was that the time he/she logged in was almost, if not exactly, the same as when I logged in. How is this even possible I have already taken precautionary measures using the Google App Anet suggested.

*Note that I have not yet logged into the game since these events happened so I don’t know if my account has been compromised

The Texas login was probably the server which is located in Austin. There is a known glitch where it reports as your location. You can check the IP with Whosis. If it’s the server it will say the owner is NC interactive.

Thanks. After seeing the TX, USA location listed a few times, even after I “disconnected” it, I looked up the IP address, and saw that it was coming from NCSoft as the provider. This made me go “hmmmm…?” and come to the forums to check.
