Guild Wars 2

So recently, I was grinding as normal. I stumbled upon a player who said to be of Chinese origin, and their English showed it. They asked to join my guild, naturally, i invited him in. There was like a 5 minute period where he was idle, then he responded with, “IM SORRY MY ENGLISH IS BAD I CANNOT READ” then" THANKS -_-" Naturally, i just brushed it off and continued playing. When i logged out tonight to check my email and get ready for bed. I got ALOT of notices that my accounts were being accessed but not successfully logged into. This struck some serious fear in me and i only managed to change the account password of my GW2 email. Going back through my chat logs, i got his IP, which as my topic titled suggest, was from China. My question to the GW2 security team, is what they are doing to assure that people cannot get this type of information.

Im sure Arena is working on a solution for this (I think) they are taking this matter seriously, so yeah send in a ticket. Sorry if i sound like a generic replier, all i can say.

I would encourage you to contact your Guild Leader and have them remove this player from the guild. Sounds like a hacker and they would love to get their dirty hands on the guild vault goodies.

It is a hacker, they target people with high ranks in a guild. Those who can withdraw items and gold from the guild storage.
