Ok, thanks for that info!Lucane said:They get your account take a system link(of which you can only have five of without requesting a reset)change the password and then proceed to buy a ton of new games on it and then either keep it or sell the loaded system with your info on it.tzimize said:So. I'm not quite getting this. Its bad publicity, yes. Particularly bad after the PSN hack. And I dont like the thought of my credic card info being where its not supposed to. But my PSN account?
Er...what could they possibly accomplish by stealing my PSN account? Could anyone paint me a worst case scenario and quote me? Because I cant really see what the horror of this is. Or is it just standardly blown out of proportion?
Overall losing you your PSN identity money(even if your card covers/removes the charge for theft they likely won't help replace the lost currency replacing games you personally bought on the stolen account which becomes invalid without a valid PSN password for the user being on the system.)and losing your friends list or at the very least having to re-send all the friend request and explaining your new persona as the former *****,profiles of online only saves (Like Warhawk,MAG, or P.S. Home)and losing of trophies if you're into them.
Well, I'm in the clear then. I think I've bought only a handful of games, none of which is important to me. And I usually never play online so my friendslist dont matter. Only RL friends on it anyway. I guess I'm more or less safe
