Please protect yourselves! PLEASE PLEASE! We have to take it into our own hands to protect ourselves until MiHoYo provides us extra security. We can blame MiHoYo as much as we want but if accounts are compromised we also have a part to play. Take action and do your part to combat the current hacking issue!

They say "time is money" , as an F2P this is so very true that we as a person don't spend money to the game but the efforts and the time consumed playing it was much more valuable, And yet some random Russian kid just destroy all that effort that cost for 0.01$ – this is very concerning that we should be so wary about. We should all be addressing these to MiHoYo in every tweets they make.
man this issue has been going on forever. I remember people complaining about it soon after the game released, then the discussion somehow died out for a bit and it seems peoples forgot about it for a while, and now we're back at it again. without any improvements whatsoever. it almost made me quit the last time people spoke about it as much as they do now, because I was sacred of putting my time and effort into developing characters only to lose everything without any compensation. then I was focused on my degree and only came back because of Zhongli (who I didn't get anyway lol). and now, after I actually started grinding and farming and reached early endgame the hackers are at it again. greedy ass company is making millions a day and throws tantrums over leaks, at the same time what do we get? no basic security, dry content, not even a full wish a day for f2p and no roadmap.
🌸❤️I have never assumed my account safe which is why I do not engage in co-op or share my User-ID. When doing videos I am always sure to cut it off.
I would say that ultimately there is not much that we can do to protect our accounts besides basics commonsense practice, consistently updating our account information, and being aware.
It is MiHoYo that must yield a greater effort to protect its community and the blood, sweat, and tears that have been poured into our accounts❤️🌸
I’m scared to lose my account. I’ve spent so much time on it and even money, and for for an account to just get taken like that? It upsets me. They have the money to make better security, so plz Mihoyo take action.
Laughs in console
Lol if you get hacked oh well it’s not the end of the world it’s a game….just go outside
they'll probably do something if the voice actors were to get hacked and make it public.
Sometimes i just want my account get hacked so i could quit the game but when that happens I'll probably rage super bad
How can we secure our account like i use symbols numbers upper case and lower case letter in my password is that good enough or it’s worthless to remember that kind of hard password
Wait are Playstation users affected by this?
Wait, couldn't they just use something like Google authenticator
So you know, the verification bypass for email verification still exists. You should spread the word, I can tell you the steps in private.
While i do agree with everything you say, this community really fails to realize that just cause a company makes XYZ amounts of money, it doesnt somehow mean they can fix these things overnight. Especially not when most of their playerbase / big spenders are in China where the security for the game is a non-issue to them. Is what im saying justification for anything? Not at all. But it's more so just providing some perspective cause a lot of this community seems to not realize the reason why Mihoyo isnt openly talking about these issues. But keep pushing your voices like this and you just might get a reaction like with Zhongli (though w. Zhongli, china also rioted over it where as with security they dont because of what i just mentioned). The western communities need to try and get the chinese communities to make noise about this for us cause they are the ones Miyoho seems to listen to first.
As a PSN player who isnt really in danger, my heart does go out to all of you, and thank you walrus for bringing awareness to a very serious issue. Hopefully more CCs can follow your example.
DO NOT schedule your password changes ! hackers can track accounts (some can track 5 accs at once)
while im playing yesterday someone log in my account from another device.
this scared the crap out of me luckily i manage to re log in and changed my password immediately
so @miHoYo pls
Tectone, Sekapoko, Demone, Tenha, Asianguy, etc, should just shut up with all the leak's nonsense and talk about this security problem.
Speaking as a software developer, 2FA is not something that should be rushed. Neither is it something that ought to be implemented by someone who doesn't know what they are doing (it's entirely possible that none of the devs at Mihoyo have a deep familiarity with security, given that they are game devs). Which leaves hiring outside contractors, many of whom are complete trash, so you first need to find a contractor who has a proven track record and knows what they are doing. But those contractors won't be familiar with your code base, so before they can even start they need to be brought up to speed on how your architecture has been implemented. Do you see why this isn't an overnight fix? Implemented poorly, 2FA could leave you MORE vulnerable to hacking. It's not a magic bullet.
If you want to protect your account, create a strong password (you can find a million videos on how to do this). If you're not sure you can remember it, use a password manager. Link your account.
Yes, Mihoyo should improve account security, but it's not just on them. If you want your account to be secure, there are easy things that you can do to make it significantly more secure (much easier than them implementing 2FA). If your password is something easily cracked like Password1234, all the additional security in the world isn't going to help you.
Fwiw, I recently heard a rumor regarding that Mihoyo is already working on 2FA. But, as you say, people get angry at everything, so it's likely that they won't make an announcement until they know with absolute certainty when it will be ready.
I'm ps4, but I still get nervous that my account could be compromised regardless. One of my best friends is mobile, and he's the only person I really co-op with that isnt randomly pulled at a domain, and he's one of the only reason I even invested so much into Genshin. I would definitely be devastated if his account was compromised and we couldn't co-op anymore.
It's also MiHoYo faults make such absurb accounts value because how rare the 5* drop rare that alone their weak security. FGO have stronger security and most people trade and sell their accounts without worry being hacked or whatever as long you don't share your transfer code and email.
I did all the things related to account security but i still got hacked 2 days ago , luckily the hacker didn’t change password and i was able to get the account back.
The hacker still messed up my account. He used all of my 5* weapons ( 3 of them ) my 4* proto claymore , r4 rust as fodder for other 4* weapons that I don’t even use. Hacker even used my saved up starglitter and stardust currency to zero . I lost so many things but I’m glad that they didn’t do that to all my 4* weapons otherwise I would have just quit playing genshin altogether.
P.S. don’t think lightly that your account would get hacked , even the most secure account can get hacked so please be careful.
My account is completely secure, because my password is W@lrusF@m69
The worst thing about this is that some people hacks other people accounts not even for money but for "fun". Some people just have fun in ruining someone no matter how bad the consequences could be bad for them. Humanity truly is disappointing
We need a 2nd password
I actually just contacted the support recently and asked them about the account security.
The support reached back to me yesterday, and basically saying that devs are working on some sort of security upgrade right now.
But welp, no exact date is given…
I watched another video where they completely destroyed the accounts by feeding 5 star weapons and artifacts to low tier ones. I'd cry if that happened to me. I only started doing coop a while back but I'll stop again, not gonna take chances 😭 I've done all I can to secure my account, if it gets hacked I'm gonna make sure it won't be my fault.
Thank you so much for making the video and spreading awareness! Like you said, people really might be lazy and think, "Hey this can't happen to me lol" since I was one of them! After seeing all the hacked genshin videos, however, I actually FINALLY changed all my passwords to something different (yes, I was guilty of using the same password everywhere xd). So, yeah! Thank for spreading the word 😀
Is ps4 user at risk too?
It's not just UID or whether y'all got careless regarding UID.
Choosing coop mode easily shared UID of people anw, it's just plain data breach
last week my friend got his acc hacked n when he finnaly got it back all his weapons are gone n the sad news is the one who hacked his acc is one of his soccer mates… but we beat the fck out of that asshole n he had to pay my friend instead
……
Moderator from r/GenshinHacked here. I think you actually missed a key point about MiHoYo being scared of community backlash over this – you're right that they stay quiet, but it's worse than that. Every platform that MHY have direct control over *actively censors*, ie removes posts, of anyone talking about hacking.
it's ironic that they focus on change Rosaria as a "appropiate" because they scared of karen and male karens reeeing and ignoring this whole security concern in the biggest bruh moment. how can whale and low to mid spend want to spend their money if their account can be breach at anytime?!
You guys remember when MiHoYo did an announcement condemning people for doing chargebacks? Funny how that was around the time people started getting hacked 🤔
BRO THESE HACKERS SHOULD KNOW THE PAIN THESE PLAYERS FELT I WANT THEN TO FEEL THE BROKEN HEARTS OF THESE PLAYERS WHO GOT HACKED
I use my Google acc is that safe? And also I have my Google acc as my acc is there a way to protect that better?? It has the same password and my acc is also linked to my email
I'm on a break from the game right now and I'm f2p with no primo in my account. Is it at risk of being hacked and do i need to download the game again just to secure it? I plan to return when 1.4 is released
i like how non hostile the hacking video is, its like if the gov't were to hire elite hackers and test out their own services. IMO this is safe but also a good way to make Mihoyo open up to their security and other things, hopefully.
Lmao sucks to be pc/mobile gamer 😂 PS4 BTW😏
Let me put it that way, while i fully agree that mihoyo isn't taking this situation nearly as seriously as they should, i'm not going to sit here and pretend that victims of hackers are not partly to blame for this. Google, Forefox, and pretty much any other service provider that requires you to make an account with them recommends you using a strong and unique password for each account that you own for a reason and i'm sorry but if you used some variant of "password1" for god knows how many services now it's honestly not mihoyo's fault that you got hacked so easily as all it takes is one of those services to get databreached and boom, a hacker now has access to dozens of your accounts because you keep reusing login ins and passwords for everything. No seriously there are multiple videos here on youtube showing good people loging on other users' account to change their signature to "change password" and if you take a look at their notepad in which they have logins and password you can easily tell that vast majority of hacked users use really weak and lazy passwords(such passwords pretty much guarantees that a user who uses such password most likely reuses it everywhere out of sheer laziness) that can be brute forced in a matter of seconds. Again, while i fully agree that mihoyo needs to stop acting like a child already and implement better security systems this does not excuse YOU from taking care of your account yourself. You can't just get upset and act as if you haven't done anything wrong and it's all mihoyo's fault because you are partly to blame for this too and trust me know it's a pain in the ass to remember 20 different passwords but this is what's required to remain fully secure in today's day and age on the internet. Stop taking account security for granted and start generating unique passwords ASAP.
Thanks for bringing this issue to light as every post about being hacked has been censored and silenced in the main forums and reddit. On top of that Mihoyo 👢 lickers instead of being emphatic to hacked victims, they flame them instead pushing blame on them and accusing them for clicking on suspicious links, bought the account, shared their account info and what not as if the victims are some dumb idiots wanting to get hacked on purpose.
I'm one of those victims that got hacked on 15 March had 113 worth of F2P primogems wasted on Hu Tao and weapon banner which I was saving up for Childe & Rosaria banner and I do NOT pull on weapon banners cause I'm F2P and I can't afford to).
The hacker wasted my exp books, mora, talent mats, weapon upgrade mats, all my starglitters.
I'm considered 1 of the very lucky victims because the hacker did not trash any of my weapons (cause maybe I had 0 5*) and Artifacts. I've been playing since day 1 with 245 achievements completed to date and I've seen some day 1 players who had their 5* weapons trashed and feed to a 3* weapon, all 5* Artifacts fed to 3*. If this had happened to me I would have quit cause its impossible to get back to track and being F2P these are months of progress and hard work.
So what did Mihoyo CS do after I contacted them and ask for a rollback to a specific time and date and guess what was their reply? ''UwU sorry we don't do rollback and keeping your account secure is your responsibility, please change your password immediately''
Imagine if you spend all those 💰and this happens to you and Mihoyo can't help you. Will you just go like ''ok cool I'll just spend more 💰 cause I'm 🐋 i can roll for all my 5* weapons again, cause this is the best game in the world so I'll just give more 💰to Mihoyo and security is our responsibility alone nothing to do with Mihoyo. (Insert laughter).
And no I did not click on any shady links, had malware, Spyware, virus, shared info with others or bought the account (like seriously Why the hell would i!?).
Also i had my phone and email linked the 1st day i played Genshin and there's no way my email will be hacked because the only way anyone can access my email is if they stole my phone physically and click yes to approve sign in on another device, on top of that i have 2FA on my email. Did not even get a single notification from Genshin and woke up to a surprise gift the very morning.
For me personally.. Besides security I think they need to pay attention to the servers..Alwys finding myself not able to login due to network busy and that too at a specific time everyday…Happened after 1.4 update never happened befre..Really frustrating..😪😪
This video needs more views!
Fact: Even you change your password, your weapon and artifacts have already been destroyed. There is nothing you can do to restore them back.
On tiktok there is an account that goes by “fak3_depression” and all of their videos are them hacking into accounts and people in the comments asking for them :/
stop saying to like email and phone, there is not 2fa. If you link both then hacker can enter your account with just one of the 2 options they don´t need both it´s like having a room with 2 doors instead of 1.
You said that the issue is not causing them any financial losses so they won't work on it. But what if the community decides to do a protest on a future update, say "no 2FA, no money", where we spend no money on the game for a whole update and continue until it hits them pretty bad and they know it's time to deal with.
P.S. If you are hear to tell me this is impossible coz no one will coordinate to waste a opportunity to get a waifu over a "irrelevant" issue like 2FA, save it, I have already thought of many counter arguments to my statement above and my only counter to that is: "Do it or don't, that's up to you but I m writing this so that someone who agrees spreads it with others who might possibly agree. This is a capitalism-stricken world, the only solution to every prblm is cutting the cash flow".
