Hi,

thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have analysed the situation and are working on ways of preventing this hack from being effective.

Thanks again for your feedback. It is much appreciated!

I hope this is fixed soon. This hack has happened to me twice in a day. I just managed to gear back up on a relatively quiet server but now I don't want to play because of the fear of this happening.

The second time it happened to me I was walking through Berezino when I ran into a fresh spawn who said "friendly friendly". I let him go on his way after offering him food, he then stood still while zombies attacked him. I pulled out my gun to help when my gun and backpack disappeared, he then teleported away. Nice....

UPDATE: Just joined a busy server. got hacked within two minutes. TWO F**KING MINUTES!!

Stealing inventory has should now be prevented by recent changes.
