Social Club Account Hacked / Stolen / Compromised

[SickB]

It seems my Social Club acount was hacked. It´s linked to this steam account. This steam account is protected with steam guard. i never got any messages. I did not use my Social Club account since Red Dead 2 so i only noticed now. Since steam starts up social club when you start a game and auto connects i wonder why i cant log in anymore and some "hacker" now has all the right to all the Rockstar Games i own over Steam.

I tried to unlink my Steam Account but that seems only to work when you log in the Social Club Account which now belongs to some [e-mail]. Feel Free to hack [e-mail] i dont care it is not my adresse so i dont obscure it here.

So why can´t i unlink my Steam Account from the Steam Side where the License is saved? And just relink my Steam Account with all my Licenses? I can´t reach Rockstar because they want me to log in with the account that isn´t mine which i cant do

It is much more likely that someone simply guessed or duplicated (from other logins) your login credentials. "Hacking" is much more sophisticated than that, and won't really be worth your while for a single account.

And, you also shouldn't publish that email address here, as it could also be stolen from someone who doesn't even know it.

account don't get "hacked", they get compromised, someone found out your login info, all you gotta do to get it back is do password recovery via the rockstar website and then use a better password

The Passwort Recovery goes to the new email adress which is not mine. Was the first thing i tried.

And Please stop making remarks about "hacked" or "compromised". English is not my first language and everyone understood what i meant.

If it was hacked or compromised doesn´t add to the solution.

Actually, when I saw the topic title, I thought that the Rockstar Social Club service had been hacked...

It IS important how you express yourself, for people to be able to understand you, and to avoid misunderstandings. Someone knows your login credentials, and has changed details in your account, so that you're not able to log into your account anymore, and recover your passwords. Nobody "hacked" your account.

So, you should contact Rockstar Games support.

Hey man, happened to me last year. Rockstar Support was SUPER helpful and I got it back within a few days. Don't give up.

Actually it happened to me. I talked to Rockstar, confirmed my info. They have a phone number and I think I had to call them. It's because Rockstar does not yet have two step verification.

I know for a fact they've had it since at least 2018. They may have had it even longer than that, but I know it's existed for a minimum of the last 6 years.
