[Qoo Otaku] Be Careful! A Japanese lost 110,000 yen to hacker who needs FGO gems

0

Type-Moon’s Fate/Grand Order (FGO) is a mobile hit worldwide since 2015. Fans have invested a lot of time, and more importantly, money into getting the servants they want. A clever player who is in desperate need of Saint Quartz – the currency used for summoning servants, has recently hacked into a Japanese’s Google Play to purchase a 110,000 yen worth of Saint Quartz.

The victim does not own a LG phone, an Oppo phone, nor a Galaxy 7, nor does he play FGO. According to his Google Play record, however, he has purchases of Saint Quartz with the above three models between 7th October and 14th October from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Israel.

“I am worried about how I can live through tomorrow,” he said.

Luckily, he found out about it early and has already had Google look into his situation. After that, he said he learnt two things. One, he should have been more careful with his Google Play account. Two, the hacker is really skilled…

…and really into FGO too.

Everyone, remember to check your Google Play purchase records always!

“I can’t forgive that FGO player. I only feel satisfied when I get the servant I want with my own money!”
“I experienced the same thing before. I lost 150,000 yen.”
“This is terrible. Should have been more careful with passwords…”
“I am trying the same thing, but I won’t do it unless I can do it properly.”
