    # # # First of all, sorry if I'm not supposed to post this, I was just wondering if it's doable, and if so I'd like to warn the public # # #

    This got me thinking...

    Second.. This guy offered me a trade...
    LordShiva 68 warrior with 1m NPS
    and another 61 mage

    for a shard +7

    I changed all of the info first, cause i was pissed off from before.. i didnt want to take any risks in giving items first or w/e.
    Well, i changed everything.
    5 mins later, after i logged off i tried to relog and it said password is invalid.
    i dont know how the fuck he hacked my account so fast, but anyway im just stupid i guess for trusting people.
    His name is singh
    and his msn is:
    [email protected]

    hope people learn from my mistakes..[/b]

    Well I was just thinking.

    Okay so we have:
    Person A
    Person B

    Person A has an account. (Level/class/etc. doesn't matter)
    Person B has IGC/IGI.

    Person A logs into KnightOnlineWorld using the info, and stays logged in
    Person A gives the info to Person B and takes the items.
    Person B changes the password.

    THEN, Person A (who's still logged in to KnightOnlineWorld) changes the password.
    Now, since KnightOnlineWorld doesn't require the current password, that person can change it.
    Person A now has the Items/Money and the ACC.

    Does that work?

    Again, deeply sorry if I'm not supposed to post this, but people should be aware (if it works).

    The 1st & the last time i was scammed in this way. Back to old ko so it's not a new method. You are lucky that scammer don't waited till you put your items there.

    But the website kicks you after 5 minutes... so

    Person A: logs in website
    Person B: receives the info and then change the password
    Person A: is kicked from website after 5 minutes logged in.

    Really it is very hard to understand how they change the password...

    Didn't know it kicked you off in 5 mins.
    But 5 mins is still enough time to get it done I think.

    Yeah, so you could just keep clicking around in the mean time, correct?

    Yes it's enough. But I've heard cases that the password is changed after 1 day/week/month, so that's the hard point...

    change the email first, and do a forget password, thats how i always did it, instead of changing pass on the website, i used the forget email thingy, then u got 60 or 90 minutes, to do it, within that time, u can change it, and he cant do anything against it
