Suspicious activity on a friend's account
If I was in your shoes I’d file a support ticket and explain just what you explained here. They will be able to tell if the account has been turned into a bot. If yes, they will block the account and your friend/guildie can put in a support ticket to get the account returned to him along with a rollback to a point before the account was compromised.

I suggest that he contact Support and the team will help him. This activity sounds as if he may have been hacked. You can read through the Knowledge Base on that link, and you can submit a ticket via the “Ask a Question” tab on that page.
For details on what information he should provide in your ticket, to expedite its response, please ask him to read The “How to Submit a Ticket” post.

Thanks Gaile, I will be doing so.
Gaile… go back to your well deserved holidays… can’t someone in the office cover for you?
Hello, I noticed one of my friends (also a guildie) started to behave strangely over the last few days, haven’t answered to private messages, suddenly stopped representing our guild, “de-friended” me and other people who we believe were both friended through the friends system in-game, etc.
This is almost exactly what happened when my account got hacked, the kitten kitten, left all the guilds I was in, and then removed all my friends.. I’ve no idea why they do this, but they do. Personally I would be worried.
I contacted support and i provided all the info I had, my friend is back now, and after seeing my messages about the activity on the account, logged in and contacted support now.
I’m the friend of Beleeth who has been hacked and I’ve just finished sending a message on the support page.
Yes my account has been hacked. At least all my characters are there but the person who hacked my account has sold everything valuable in my bank, character bags and hero panel. I hope you can restore my account the way it was before it got hacked.
When I checked were comes from the last connection of my account it says “KR”. : (
