Account Compromised

[Ember_Roux]

Hello, my account got scammed by a Gil raffle, how can I recover my account?

Probably by not falling for it next time, it's also extremely obvious, if you fall for it... seriously.

All you can do is contact support, nothing else that can be done really, and with new year tomorrow, not sure it'll happen as quickly as you'd like it to be

Yea they will return on the other day, dammit I feel stupid

Is this post being made by the account that was compromised?

They usually just ban it temporarily and support isn't available on new year.

You can recover your password at https://support.na.square-enix.com/c...t=ID%20Unknown

If they deleted your characters and other information you can submit a data recovery request (but I have seen people say it takes months and they can't do anything in those months because it will all be reverted) http://support.na.square-enix.com/fa...aqtop&c=3&sc=0

Eh, young kids always have a first. In the greater scheme of things, losing your new mmo account is like the best way to make this mistake, and not when you're like 70 trying to retire and get your actual bank account liquidated.

I don't blame young people for making mistakes. That's just what young people do! All I can say is that if you or others have young people in your lives, just educate those around you.
