I just found out today that SOMEONE HACKED INTO MY MINECRAFT ACCOUNT! Please HELP me!
What they have changed:
The person CHANGED MY PASSWORD so i can't log in! I was logged in already in one browser and went to change my password because i couldn't log in from another window i was in. I went to my profile and clicked change password. I put in MY old one and the new one i was gonna make. It says the old one doesn't match. Then I went back to the profile and found that the person ALSO CHANGED MY E-MAIL address. They changed it to:[email protected]
I clicked change e-mail address and it said it has been temporarily disabled, so i can't do that now! Please help me catch this CROOK! This person might be playing as me and i don't know it! They might be ruining my reputation! I have closed my server, as this could be very dangerous. Now PLEASE! oh PLEASE! help me!

First thing you have to do now -> scan your PC for things that shouldn't be there ;-)
Than you can mail Notch
I scanned my computer alright. I scanned it 3 times! It says "McAfee is protecting you computer: and "Secure: Your PC is protected". All lights are green on it.

@pjjkp.com is a e-mail from 10 minutes Mail, the e-mail self destructed 10 minutes after your account was stolen.
Most account where stolen with this method: 1: A program scan this forum and get your username (i don't have sure if the program get your forum username or the one on your profile) 2: Since minecraft don't limit the max tries for a password they used the brute force method. 3:The program load a file with the most common passwords; 4:For each account found in the forum, it tries all the words on the file. 5: Accounts stollen.

All I got to say is:
there are some people who only mean harm
even on a harmless game
but if you had a loser password like "password", "123456789" or the same as your name then:
LOL

Quote from Aqualize »
it will obviously be CHOCOLATE ORE
used to make cocoa beans and CHOCOLATE CAKE and CHOCOLATE INGOTS
CHOCOLATE INGOTS will be used to make CHOCOLATE TOOLS which are obviously much stronger than diamond and also may be eaten if you are hungry.

Here's a hint to make a secure password: use something only relevant to you, like the name of your kindergarten teacher, or your dog. Then put initials of what your playing in front of so, say your first teachers name was smith, you would do mcsmith or smithmc. But I'm sorry that your account was stolen!

Random fact: Smith is the most common last name in the world.

You need numbers and/or symbols (such as !"£$%^&*()@?).
Else it's easy to get to.
Well, as I just refreshed the page I was on, it LOGGED ME OUT of Minecraft, so there is pretty much no possible way for me to get back into my account unless I somehow guess the password the person changed my password to.

My account was also hacked. Only time i ever typed my password was when i logged in, then i saved the password. Never typed it after that, then about a week ago, hit the log in button, and "sorry, can't connect. Play offline or try again?" Wtf? Go to type in my email to get a password resent, "Username not recognized." Sh*t. Typed in my account name, it accepted it, so i know i'm not crazy and haven't been hallucinating playing minecraft for the past couple months.

Well, I was hoping someone could find the person through the e-mail address. True, it might be fake, but if it's not, we could have some luck.

so you're saying i can only change my e-mail if Notch gets my e-mail and he lets me or something?

You could also try e-mailing Jeb, he is the one that disabled it. They have to manually change it.
