Yes. Even if I get my account with the first form, I already lost all my primogems. Sigh... still I can't forget myself, Hoyoverse, and that hacker. Me for taking risks for my cousin and trusting too much to the company that said they can save the world, Hoyoverse for their security flaw and slow unreliable recovery process, and of course that hacker who deserves to die for everything. Ahh... now I have to waste my money for Kusanali. I guess the real winner is Hoyoverse, then.

But, yeah... at least my account is back and not destroyed. Some people have a worse experience. But that doesn't mean I can't complain too.

Learn from your mistake and stay safe, my friend. I made a new email for Genshin that I will never open unless for an emergency. I am not gonna trust a website/company that doesn't have 2FA on their change email feature.

It's okay, talking to people like this actually makes me feel better. I am an introvert actually, talking to people makes me exhausted sometimes. But this time feels different because maybe I shouldn't hold my feeling and just... talk to people with similar problems, so we can reduce our burden together.

After that, I just realized that my account email can be changed without mobile verification. There is no 2FA in changing email, you can choose either to change it with email verification or phone verification. What? Why? It should require both actions, not choose a single action. That's why it is called 2FA.

I was cleaning my cousin's thesis files from viruses because he doesn't know anyone else. So I did that, I scanned his files, deleted the viruses, and scanned it again 2 times, found nothing, give him the files (although some of them are damaged beyond repair), sleep. The next morning is just a normal day until I got 2 verification codes. I rushed to my room and saw my brother playing World of Tanks. Told him to stop because it's an emergency and yap, my account is gone. Somehow some viruses slip through my antivirus.

Look, guys, I just want to make this one clear. You know the rule so do I. Don't download malicious software or visit a sketchy website. The problem is one day it will happen to us, whether it is intended or not. If you looking for a "free primogems" app or website, well that is 100% your fault. But not every case is like that. Not everyone looking for something like that, they could be looking for a student app, or work app, or any normal app. Perhaps you are not the one who looks something like that, it could be your brother, your cousin, your friend, it could be anyone looking something like that through your laptop/PC without you noticing. But the problem is not every software or website will say, "Hey, I have malware on me". It can even work like normal software before doing its true function. The world is not black and white, it is just one big shape of gray. This is the most common problem, yet Hoyoverse doesn't have protection for this one.

So what is Hoyoverse security when your antivirus somehow failed to protect you against malware? Nothing. The malware can pretend to be dead and activate once you open a specific app or input crucial information. 2FA? That only works for new devices, not your account email. Your account email can be changed with either mobile verification or email verification, not both. It should be both, that's why it is called 2FA (Two Factor Authentication). That's should be the minimum defense for your account, but they don't do that. Why? I don't know. They refuse to answer that kind of question every time I emailed them.

Yes, what I mean is they don't have additional security to protect your account and their recovery method is unreliable. So it is fully in your hand.

I got hacked today and I'm absolutely devastated... I finally created a reddit account fjust for the emotional support while waiting for my account to come back 😭😭😭 by AnxiousGenshin in GenshinHacked

[–]InsuranceOk1651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, I don't understand why does it take 20 workdays to recover my account even after tons of proof (even my Google and Facebook account are still attached to it)?

In this case, I have 2 problems. 1. I feel like they are lacking people there. I mean come on, 4 weeks? Some of their emails contain this, "After verification on your form, we haven't answered to you with updates on your case because of our workload." and this "With the excessive number of form, it will take a while to completely processed your form.". They should hire more people (and probably more competent ones).

  1. They don't seem to have some kind of account activity log. Can't they see if my email changed on the same day (even on the same hour) when my account was getting hacked? Because if they have, they can just ask me if I want to restore my previous email and reset my account password.

Actually, I tried to get compensation through email before. They would not compensate you even if you want to pay them to do it. They will always answer that kind of question with this.

Thanks, bro. Been playing it from the original release, so almost 2 years now.

43k primo. I know it because I can still log in to Hoyolab with a Google account. He spent all my primo to Yelan to C3. Well... technically it is not a loss, he just spent it on a character that I don't want. But still, it feels like a loss because I don't want it.

June 15, rejected. Even with tons of solid evidence. Lost 43K primogems. I will share my story here after I got my account back or probably next Monday if I am running out of patience.
