Bounty after being killed by a bug/hacker, and it gets worse

[meepi]

I was in the middle of nowhere when i suddenly exploded like someone threw dynamite on me. The game then told me i killed myself....well, i was riding on my horse at the top of an empy mountain, doing nothing special, no other players or npc were there. Then there were red signs: "hostility" stacked higher and higher, i got about 90 Dollars of bounty. I logged out, hoped that it could remove the bug or at least solve the problem but no. After being logged in again, i ported to my camp to pay the bounty which was still that high. While walking to my chest to pay, the bounty suddenly stacked higher again: Now i had a bounty of 160 Dollar and hostility stacked higher and higher, with me doing absolutely nothing. I paid the 160 Dollar bounty, turn around to go to my horse and hostility started to stack again, i gained bounty, its about 50 Dollar now. Then i logged out, contacted the support but didnt get a response until now.
Anybody has an idea how to fix this? I dont want to be a target for bountyhunters all the time.....besides i want to keep my dollars...-.-

It’s not a bug, you were being targeted by a cheater.

Sadly there’s only two ways to avoid them.

1) Stop playing in public sessions and only play in private games. This video shows you how:

2) Stop playing Red Dead Online on PC and switch to the PlayStation/Xbox version of the game. The PC version is absolutely saturated with cheaters. :(

If you contact Rockstar Customer support and explain the situation they should hopefully return the RDO$ you lost to the cheated bounties.

Unfortunately though, if you keep playing the PC version in public sessions, it’s only a matter of time before you get targeted by a cheater again. It’s incredibly frustrating. :/

The PC version of Red Dead Online is borderline-unplayable with all the cheating.

Yeah, I rarely use public lobbies. I solo mostly with RDO Lobby Manager. If R* gave ****, this wouldn't be a problem, but they don't, and it is.

Thank you very much! I followed the instructions in the video and it works perfectly. I played for hours without any crash and dont have to watch out of cheaters.

This works like a charm! This is exactly what I wanted. Although I do miss waving at the occasional "friendly", the fix more than makes up for it by not getting me shot at every time I try to go to Madam Nazaar. Thank you for posting! <3
