I was inactive since Halloween, and when I tried to log back on, I was banned for 3 days. My account somehow got stolen, though I revealed no info. The hacker then sent a bunch of scam messages to people, and I got reported. I've sent out multiple apology notes for what happened, but people are still mad.

So, I think we should add account protection. Like if you're logging in from a different IP, you'll have to enter a code or something. Suggest other stuff below.

How about a 2-Step Verification process like Google's? First you would type in your PW like usual, and when ROBLOX recognizes that you're logging in from an unusual device or IP, they send you an email or text message containing a code you need to enter to proceed.

One of the reasons why many call Roblox immature is due to their lack of account protection.

@xshot;

unless it's a professional or an employee, there's nearly no way he was hacked.

it was probably a KL, PG, or him sharing credentials.

tip: make a complex PW and share it with nobody. It doesn't have to be 8 trillion characters long, just a little random. Also, go to no offsite link and share nothing.

social engineering is usually considered hacking, so i'd say he was hacked.

Incorrect. The point of "social engineering" is so you DON'T have to hack. -If your talking about some guy getting op to run a RAT then maybe...

Basically exploiting anything that has to do with computers in anyway.

Social Engineering is exploiting the human mind which isn't directly tied with "hacking" in the computer context in anyway

@ninja;

2 possibilities if what you say is true:
1. pg'ed
2. expert got a hold of you

well, maybe not an expert, but somebody who knows what they're doing.
