MGM/Sean (11:44 PM) :
**HACKER ALERT** On UO Shard SONOMA, not twenty minutes ago, a character named SANG directed me to the website ominous-hq.com. DO NOT GO THERE. He told me they were buying Blue Soulstones, which I was spamming that I was selling at Luna. Fifteen minutes after registration (I was on two accounts at the time), I got kicked from one account, and then I see my char's name speaking in Guild chat on the other. I called EA, and they informed me that my email and password on the account had already been changed. Luckily, my E^E guildmates in TS were able to distract the hacker until I was able to reset the information.

LET THIS BE A WARNING TO ALL - THE CHAR NAMED SANG ON SONOMA, AND THE SITE OMINOUS-HQ.COM, ARE TOOLS USED TO HACK YOUR UO ACCOUNTS.

Thank you EA, and to my fellow members in E^E, for helping me secure what was rightfully mine, before it was too late.

- Sean, Machine Gun Mimi, FruchtNektar, E^E SONOMA

MGM/Sean (11:55 PM) :
Please all, in my frenzy, I didn't mention. I'd like to give a special thanks to the broker Africanus of Tradespot. He sold me a 90 day Gametime code MONTHS ago, and he still had it on record to this day, and was able to get it to me in mere minutes. Verifying this code with EA was the only way I was able to get my account back. Were it not for his effort, I would not have my account right now. I highly recommend him should you be in need of a broker's services in the future.

Africanus, thank you so very much.

MGM/Sean (12:51 AM) :
I was selling a Blue Soulstone token at luna. he partied me, said that was a guild-run website where someone was looking to buy blue soulstones (i found it believable seeing that my own guild runs a website where we trade regularly) It was fishy, because the website was stripped. The only thing there was a member list, showing many names that I recognized from Sonoma, and many names i've never seen before
