UNBELIEVABLE! My BF3 account has been hacked by someone in Russia!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have changed my account to BOSLUS1. Check it out!!!!!!!!!! They are currently in the process of RUINING my stats. I am on the phone with EA Tech Support trying to get this straightened out. I am shocked and disgusted by this. I am hoping EA can get this figured out, but if they can't, I will be retiring from BF3 forever. I worked hard since October of last year building those stats and I refuse to start over. I can't believe this.
They didn't even bother to change anything in the acount. See that Platoon 452 MXS? That's the SQUADRON I AM IN IN THE AIR FORCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ASRTRJHGBKFJHGLKDFGJHFBG I'm so mad!!!!

Heiden,
Please don't retire from BF3. You are good for BK to have around.
Even though my KD ratio is higher when you're not playing...LOL.
Sorry to hear this happened to you. Hang in there.

VICTORY AGAINST THE HACKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After an hour on the phone with EA tech support I have banished that Russian back to the Gulag and have reclaimed my account!!!!!! Unfortunately I was unable to change my name back to Heiden-BK- so I have changed it to Heidi-BK- .... a little feminine, I know, but cute all the same. I will officially request the name change with the command staff here shortly. Hackers can burn in you-know-where.

Sorry to hear Heiden
If EA tech support doesn't get things sorted out. You could try Ian Tornay
@crash7800 BF3 Community Manager as a last resort - He's helped out a couple of people in this situation before on
Reddit So it might be worth a shot.

Most important: I would check the email account that was associated with your Origin account, make sure it wasn't compromised and change the password on it asap. I would suggest changing passwords on all your accounts anyway just to be on the safe side, but especially if you use the same password on multiple accounts.
Good luck I certainly feel for you
EDIT LOL NVM --- Great News Heiden err Heidi
Changing passwords suggestion on other accounts still applies

Heidi!... Heiden.. it's all the same. I did notice some fraudulent emails going out from my email address starting yesterday so it's all making sense. I need to change things ASAP.

So does that mean I have to put some "
PINK" coloring into your SIG to go with your new name??? LOL
Seriously though, glad you got that mess straightened out!!

Speaking of pink. Back when I did a lot of PvP in an mmo called City Of Heroes most of my characters had at least one hot pink costume. I always thought it was funny to have some giant hulking character beating up other players while wearing pink short shorts or a pink kilt.

AMXS, bahhh, I'm backshop baby, MXS! I can work the flightline, heavy maintenance, component overhauls, programs, on TWO airframes. The AMXS guys only do on-equipment on one airframe. And I know your type Pyro!! You know how many SPs I've woken up on the flightline during FOD walks? They're either sleeping or texting in their trucks.
I still think you're cool though.

Good to hear your got it sorted out. But why can you not get the old name back? Did they just give your another serial and move your stats over, banning your old account?
