Origin account hacked what would you do?

uber soldat · 29 Dec 2016 at 13:36

My origin account was hacked by a polish douchebag sometime in the last month or so.(logged in for first time in a year yesterday)

I have changed password and setup two step authentication now so its all good, but heres my dilemma.

This polish douche made the mistake of adding 4 of his friends to my account, which they soon unfriended when they realised their hacking mate had been rumbled, however their names still show on my battlelog

so do I

A) send them abuse
B) try and trick them into giving up info on their mate
C)try and somehow trace their mate and cause merry hell for him
D)pancake

E) Forget about it and get on with your life?

Pancake. I had the same on my ubisoft account. My display name and icon had changed entirely and I was constantly in game. Thankfully no payment information on the account and he/she/it only had access to a couple of games.

No idea how they managed it though, the password was a 504bit generated WPA key...

Oh, and format your PC.

F) Realise that hackers are taking over the world and head to the pub, get smashed, eat a kebab (or 2) and laugh it off in the morning and carry on.
