Chinese hack my acc 26 May. Your suggestions do not help. They took all the orbs and quality gems. There were not as many as the other players, but no desire to keep playing...

Thank you for writing it helped me a lot...

"Your Path of Exile account has been locked because someone attempted to log in from a location that you don't typically play from - "Chengdu, Sichuan, China".

To play again, you'll need to type or paste the following access code into the game client after logging in:

8d8-7ad-1feb

Our support staff will never ask you for this unlock code. Do not give it to anyone.

If you didn't just attempt to log in from a new location, then someone else has your account password! You should change it immediately which can be done on our website.

If you have any problems with this process, please contact customer support by replying to this email."

So the person from China managed to login to your poe account after it had been locked? That means that your email account has been compromised.
rhetorical questions...

And how did they know my email? Dear GGG mabe your (or rather our) email database was hacked ?

The most likely thing is that they started by obtaining your email, and your inbox or bin contained an email from GGG, which is how they knew that a pow account was associated with that email. Whoever gained access to your email would then add it to a package of many email addresses that contain poe accounts and sell the package to someone who buys poe accounts to resell the orbs on them.

Alternatively, you may use the same email address for many things, which makes it easier for them to obtain.

If GGG had been hacked they would know it. Believe me, they will have a lot of logs. Also, certain fields on their database will contain encrypted values, so even if they were hacked the hacker would not know your password.

If you really want someone to blame then blame the players who buy orbs with real money. RMT is the reason for hacking.

Even if they got your email address from GGG, How in the hell do you think they got your email password. GGG does not have your email password.

Also, make sure the password is long and let it contain at least one digit.


Useless step

lol at using MD5 calculations for passwords... because that is real world, I guess it is if you're a dumbass.

Also, this article has absolutely not related to PoE and the passwords used. Due to the fact that no one other than GGG (that I know of) has password hashes and will be impossible to crack using methods described here. So please google more and post more useless links about things you have no idea about.

They may or may not know it... Just because the log file is there doesn't mean GGG knows how to read the log file correctly. If the database was found it wouldn't take long to get the passwords.
