Chapter 80 The Door of Hacking
Chapter 80: Hacking Door
February 14th, Valentine's Day, is the most solemn holiday for lovers in the world. It is also the birthday of Lin Feng's artist Lin Zhihui.
On this day, Lin Feng not only invited relevant company personnel, but also specially selected 100 lucky people from among the senior members of the "Second World Club" to celebrate Lin Zhihui's birthday.
Of course, Lin Feng's move also stimulated the growth rate of senior members again. On this day, the number of senior members exceeded 200,000. At this time, "Millennium" and "Paradise" imitated the club membership system launched by Lin Feng. Senior members
There are only about 20,000 people each.
Just when Lin Feng and others were happily celebrating Lin Zhihui's birthday, Cui Mingze hurriedly brought news that surprised everyone in the room - player accounts were stolen on a large scale.
This time is not an ordinary account hacking incident. According to Cui Mingze’s statistics, more than 300,000 accounts were hacked in "Legend" on that day, while "Millennium" and "Paradise" also had accounts hacked to varying degrees, although the number of hacked accounts is far less than that of "Legend"
Compared with "Legend", it is also a big blow to the two online games.
All players whose accounts have been hacked will see a message on the screen when they turn on their computers on this day - Valentine's Day is here, please don't indulge in games and go give your sweetheart a rose!
At first when they saw this message, most players smiled and didn't take it seriously. But when they logged in, they saw that the entire account was standing naked in Beech City. Not only were the equipment they had worked so hard to obtain gone, but even the gold coins in their bags were empty.
In shock, these players who had lost everything went to the warehouse and found that the warehouse was also empty.
At this time, they realized that the warm reminder displayed on boot was a nightmare for them. At the same time, these players whose accounts were stolen found that not only their accounts had been stolen, but thousands of naked players appeared in Beach City.
After asking around, this message appears every time I turn on the computer, and then all the equipment and gold coins in the game account disappear.
Frustrated, many players whose accounts were stolen vented all their anger and frustration to the "Second World", believing that it was the "Second World" that caused their accounts to be stolen. These irrational players appealed to the "Second World" in various forums.
"World" offered compensation, and warned that if compensation was not given, they would never play the game again, and would appeal to other players not to play "Legend" again.
Regarding the "Account Stealing" incident that broke out in "Legend", all online game companies received the news as soon as possible, and they all waited to see what would happen. Even Shengda, who was also deeply affected by the "Account Stealing" incident,
He Jiucheng was also watching the show. After all, their losses were not too big, and many players were mainly targeting "Legend", so they were happy to watch the show.
As long as the "Account Stealing Gate" incident in the "Second World" is not handled properly, a large number of players will be lost, and that will be the time for their rise.
Cui Mingze's news naturally ruined Lin Zhihui's birthday party. Not only the company employees were in no mood, but even the 100 lucky players who were specially invited were no longer interested. They all hurriedly left and went home to check whether their accounts had been stolen.
"Youyou, you go back with Zhizhi and Meixi first. Don't worry here." Lin Feng comforted the worried Li Zhiyou, ordered someone to send him home, and rushed to the company with Cui Mingze.
Lin Feng had already been mentally prepared for this "Account Stealing Gate", but what Lin Feng didn't expect was that it would break out in one day, and the scope of account theft was so wide, with "Legend" alone having more than 300,000 users. If this time
If the incident is not handled well, not to mention the launch of his "Second World DNA", even "Legend" may be severely damaged by the "Account Stealing Gate" incident, or even go bankrupt.
Lin Feng's palms couldn't help but feel a little sweaty.
"How's it going? Have you found out the reason?" Lin Feng asked anxiously.
"Mr. Lin, most account thefts come from this plug-in called 'Legend Perfect Hang Up', which provides free hang up. After careful inspection and cracking of the software, we found that there is an extremely hidden Trojan horse program hidden in it.
The outbreak date of this procedure is today." Cui Mingze's tone revealed the meaning of reprimand.
Cui Mingze and others originally discovered the "Legendary Perfect Hang-up" plug-in software, but Lin Feng did not block it in order to launch "Second World DNA", which resulted in the current situation. He single-handedly planned and developed "
Cui Mingze of "Legend" regards "Legend" as his "son". How can you not be angry about this situation now?
Lin Feng had no excuse. This time he could only say that he was unlucky to have met such a scheming opponent. He had been raising his account for more than a month and only took action today. His scheming and methods had to be admired.
And these players are like the "old sows" he raised, and they only took action after they were fattened today.
"Quick, block the trading function of "Legend" immediately." Lin Feng had an idea in his mind and shouted.
Cui Mingze also suddenly woke up, but he looked troubled, "Mr. Lin, if you want to temporarily close the transaction function, I'm afraid it's not possible yet. If you want to prevent the other party's fund transfer, you must shut down all servers."
Shut down all the servers! - Lin Feng was shocked. It was a bit risky to shut down all the servers at this time. However, in order to recover the players' stolen equipment and gold coins as much as possible, he could only take the risk once.
Although Lin Feng can compensate players whose accounts were stolen based on background records, so much extra equipment and gold coins out of thin air will cause a devastating blow to the stable "Legend" financial market, which Lin Feng cannot bear.
If there is no compensation, although Lin Feng can refuse compensation on the grounds that players use cheats and their accounts are stolen, there is no doubt that a large number of players will be lost.
In today's market context where wolves are everywhere and tigers are watching, Lin Feng, the proud tiger, cannot make a single mistake, otherwise he will be devoured by the wolves.
"All servers in the region will issue a notice and shut down the servers after three minutes. And tell all players that the 'Second World' will explain this incident tomorrow." Lin Feng gritted his teeth and said firmly.
"Yes." Cui Mingze nodded and immediately ordered the staff to deal with it.
Three minutes later, "Legend" was shut down for the first time without maintenance since the server was launched. All players, not only those whose accounts were hacked, but also those whose accounts were hacked, crowded into the official forum to express their opinions on the matter.
Players whose accounts were stolen were inevitably extreme in their language, and threatened to pay compensation, otherwise they would never play any game launched by "Second World". However, those who had not had their accounts hacked, except for those who were lucky enough to cause the disaster, went around to inquire about the whole story.
Want to find out the cause of the incident.
At this time, Lin Feng, who was still tracing the whereabouts of a large amount of funds that had stolen accounts, also promptly ordered someone to publish some rumors in the name of players about the reasons for the stolen accounts.
After learning that the accounts of hacked players were stolen because they used plug-ins, ordinary players who had been instigated by hackers slowly began to calm down and wait for official explanations. Some players, on the other hand, directly mocked those players who had their accounts stolen as they deserved it and did not use plug-ins.
Then the account will not be hacked. He also calls on the "Second World" to ignore these players. This is what they asked for.
As a result, the two factions quarreled in various forums, which somewhat eased the embarrassment of Lin Feng and others.
Just as Lin Feng was furiously tracing the whereabouts of the stolen funds, in an unknown room, a man slammed the table.
