Recently my valorant account was suspended pernamently because a cheater hacked into my email and got into my account, I was wondering how I can get proof or any ideas would be welcomed.
Hi @Aiko :e1_sparkles: Do you have email confirmation Enabled on your account? Or is Disabled? Have you received a message in your e-mail informing you that the e-mail has changed to an account? I also want to point out that everything I write are my own opinions and suggestions. I can't know what Riot knows and what Riot sees, etc.
@Aikoγ Sorry to hear this happened! First and foremost just a few things.
Have you used any 3rd party websites and/or applications that require your Riot login credentials?
Have you already submitted a ticket with Riot support under βaccount recoveryβ?
To reference @jjessiee question, did you ever receive an email stating an email change
Have you taken steps to secure your account?
As stated above, Only Riot support can work on account related issues as staff here are not Riot employees and if you havenβt submitted a ticket with Riot support you can do so here
never share your account or account creds with ANYONE (they can then be shared with additional people without your knowledge, or your account taken over by the other person, and this happens all the time).
never login into any site with your Riot credentials other than http://authenticate.riotgames.com/. this includes 3rd party applications that ask for your Riot credentials. for any applications that use our official 3rd party API, you should be redirected to this site to log in. if not, don't do it or your credentials can be compromised due to malicious apps, insecure storage/transmission, or session hijacking.
I am not completely sure how I was hacked but yes I have submitted a ticket and changed all my passwords and email, additionally I saw that there were 2 codes sent in my email that werenβt from me so Im genuinely not sure how they got my email
I only got an email for a verification code which the supposed hacker used, but I was able to change everything else in time but when I logged into my account I was loaded mid game and straight after the game I was hit with a perma ban
