I've been trapped by my cousin.

So here is my story: I decided to download MapleStory again after quitting for 2 years. I downloaded the game when I was in my cousins house because his big brother cleaned my computer so that I had space to download the game. After I finished downloading it, I told him I was going to make my account(I lost my old one), but he said "Nah that takes too long here, I'll give you this old account of mine that I don't use anymore. Just delete all the characters on it and you have a new account". I accepted (Fatal Mistake). So there I was playing Maple again. I decided to start leveling and getting money. So, in about 3 days I made it to level 25, and I thought "ehh I'll continue leveling up later, I need some money right now". Luckily, with the 5k maple points I got some scrolls, white scroll, and a chair from gachapon. So, I sold all that and ended up with about 150m. My cousin then logged on and I told him that I had gotten 150m and that I'm rich! (Second Fatal Mistake). So with the money I earned I start funding my little thief. I bought godly equips for when he's level 30 - 40. I bought stuff like 32 att maple claw, 7 att wgs, and good scrolled clothes. I ended up with a little bit of money but I was all happy that I had all good sorts of stuff for when I level my thief. I log off with a feeling of success. I logged off because I had a soccer tournament in Anaheim the next morning and I was staying for a whole weekend. When I came back from the tournament I logged on because I wanted to start leveling my little thief. I was in shock. I was stripped and my inventory had nothing! And there was nothing in storage either... I had been hacked. The worst part of it is that I knew who did it. I waited until he logged on and I asked him why did he hack me. He said he didn't. But then I started questioning him about how nobody else knew my account info until he finally said " hahaha fine I did hack you". Then I asked him for all of my stuff back but he refused. I kept on insisting but he kept on refusing... So I ask basil, Is there ANY way of changing my info without knowing the email or any information about the account? Any kind of hack? ANYTHING? Thank you for your time and sorry for making it so long.

[quote] Narutouzum78 : but i don't get it. didn't you make your own "pic" for that thief? [/quote] PIC is account wide meaning that each of your characters, across all worlds, use the same PIC. You got ripped of that White Scroll btw.

[quote] xXDannyBoyXx : I heard white scrolls were about 80m... [/quote] Multiply it by 6. That's your real price.

LOL at people flaming him cuz he sold a white scroll for 80m xD I guess you are thinking "Dam why didn't i buy that". TS: If you are older than him which i think its not the case, threaten him or something haha if u are younger tell his parents lol. Or go to his house and find a way to drop his equips in the FM....and then just run.

Narutouzum78 : Perhaps his cousin originally made the account and set the PIC? It's pretty much your fault. If you wanted your account to be a bit more secure, you should've either changed the information on the account given to you by your cousin (Which I wouldn't recommend over the next option) or just take the few minutes to make your own account. Let's just hope you learn from this grave mistake. Regardless if they are family or not, do not trust them with account-related matters. Best bet is to talk to his/ her parents and get this straightened out.

This looks like a troll? Reason: Kid seems too "not smart", too many "incorrect" moves made by the user, did not bother checking prices of the stuff he gached, getting a rog chair and a white scroll in 5 tickets; although possible, is highly unlikely

Go up to your cousin and beat the living day-lights out of him for robbing you...in a virtual game. Then look in a mirror and beat the living day-lights out of yourself for only getting 150mil from a white scroll + chair from gach, and for not changing any of your passwords. If you cant get a hold of him, call up his parents and tell them in a sad voice that he hacked you in a way that will make him have to give it all back plus more, plus getting grounded for stealing from a cousin.
