HELP I THINK SOMEONE IS PLAYING FROM MY ACCOUNT BUT IS NOT USING STEAM?

[Andyy]

When I try to open the game and a message pops up that some other device is connected. I tried to join some friends and it kicked me out. Also I hadn't played the game for like two years and now out of nowhere I have all my perks maxed out and all my survivors are at least 9th precision. Oh and all of my items are at 9k....

check your steam library sharing options. maybe you shared your library to someone and forgot.

And on Steam I have only like 15 hours. So I figured out that someone must be using my account but with Epic Games. My friends also told me that I've been online with a different nickname???

also check if your account is linked to behavior account. if you didnt link it to a behavior account than someone is using your account. you can unlink it in the game i think.

I dont have a behavior account, but when I tried to make one and link it with steam it said that my account contents are already connected?? And in game I didnt find a way to unlink it.

That's probably your answer then. Someone got access to your DBD account and edited the save for it. You should contact support about reclaiming your profile and have it reset.

If he contacts them, they will immediately ban him for the tampered progress! It’s better to tell him not to ban his pc so that he can start again on a new account without problems, usually pc itself is also getting banned for tampered progress, even if this is the first ban. Apparently your account was connected to epic and the progress was transferred, I don’t think that support will help in unlinking Steam from the epic account

its actually better to report it to staff so they can fix it for you, or at least know the situation. if they aren't told, they will just assume he is willfully cheating and HWID ban him.
but the priority is to make sure you and only you have access to the account.

They gave an answer to my friend with whom we played before when he was in a similar situation with the OP, he was simply banned after contacting them, they didnot reset the save, they simply can't reset it and that’s all, let the op contact them and give us an answer, I hope they will help, but they haven’t helped with this question before

Andyyy, assuming you're honest, it sounds like someone hijacked your Steam account. To link a Steam account to an Epic account through a Behavior account, the user would need to sign in to both Steam and Epic as part of the verification process while going through the BHVR website. Source: https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/articles/6577239832468-How-to-enable-Cross-Progression-via-a-Behaviour-Account

So first, you need to ensure your Steam account is back in your control.
https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithAccountStolen

Then, write in to BHVR to explain that your Steam account was compromised and unlink your Steam account from the current BHVR account. You can create a support ticket using this link: https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

I am guessing that BHVR should be able to confirm if your claims are true based on some technical data. Better to unlink your account as soon as possible, before the fraudulent user on the Epic account gets your linked Steam account banned.

Thanks for the help, I'll try everything I can to get this guy out of my account. Btw I also have his username and ig it would be helpful.

That month my brother tried to get free CS skins through some sketchy website. My account got hacked and I got it back 3 days after contacting steam.
