Hacker shop spotted at Room 2 FM mzcwV

I went to FM to see any shop selling my items and I saw one shop, IGN: mzcwV selling a blue bazura, which is exactly the same as the one I'm wearing previously. He also selling the Purple Snow Board which has the same stat as Aranity is using (a clean one without scroll), selling 3 Super Snow Board (I have a lot of SSB in my character and storage characters).
This is the same PSB that my Aranity is currently using.

I have > 5 SSB sitting in every storage character, but now, all gone by the wind with the hacker.

I still couldn't find this item in any shop. (SSB+5, STR 5, WA 95, 2 slots left)

I Tio Hacked... 21 characters

My last login date is Tuesday 30/3/2010, where I login to participate in the Maple Online Treasure Hunt contest to capture screenshot with the npc at Kerning City and share with ARAN002@live.com.
After that, there was server check, SG Gateway down, Urgent Server Restart on 31/3/2010. I didn't login on that day.


I login back today at 7.00pm 1/4/2010 and found out that all my characters have been hacked. All equipments, mesos and storage items was gone. Even my Maple CASH was being used (Pink Bunny Visor - 3K, Heart Ribbon Gloves - 3.5K, Suit of Darkness 6.5K, Race Queen Boots 4K, Bouquet => total >17K) on ShePriest character. I remember I have maple cash of 2x,xxx and now it just have a balance of 2910.

I never share account with anyone, I'm a single user, I never play in LAN shop, only play at my home and have 1st and 2nd password set. Everytime I login 2nd pwd, I'm using the keyboard UI screen, no typing on the keyboard.

The list of characters being hacked are listed down below:

1. ShePriest (lvl 188 BS)
2. Aranity (lvl 124 Aran)
3. SheDK
4. SheFight
5. SheRanity
6. SheNight
7. MyScroller
8. MyManager
9. MyDoctor
10. SherlynChew (lv 58 Spearman)
11. SheFighter
12. SherlynMage
13. KOCSherlyn
14. RapunzelMS
15. NicePirate
16. NiceAlways
17. NoobyKOC
18. CinderellaMS
19. SnowWhiteMS
20. ShePirateGS
21. KOCSnow

I request for help and urgent attention to trace back the logs and recover back the accounts that got hacked as all this characters are played by myself alone and I've spend more than 2 years time, effort and money on this game. I really enjoy playing Maple and with the hacking happening, I'm not able to train as usual as my scrolled items all have been thrown away/stolen by the hacker.

Please help to provide support and if more information is needed, I'm willing to help in doing the tracing. I have knowledge of programming and SQL database handling and will be willing to offer help if needed.

Tracing back logs would be after the server check on 31/3/2010 until today 1/4/2010 7.00pm.
Thanks.

======================
Total item losses are huge as I have 21 characters got hacked.Estimated to be worth over 1 Billion meso + items (like owl mask, dex dog nose, super snowboard, scrolled dragon
staff, and many more).
======================
Login screen when I login... OMG ShePriest is all dressed up. The hacker has spend my ACash on cash items. My other characters all naked.

All my equip items were thrown / taken away. My Blue Bazura scrolled was taken and left with this clean Bazura.

My Targa and Scar Helm was thrown as well. Notice this Pink Bunny Visor was available after the server check and cash shop update on 31/3/2010. Sad...

Cash item - Heart Ribbon Gloves (Expiry date 29th June 2010, 13:37, bought date @ 1st April 2010 13:37)

Race Queen Boots

And this Bouquet which as a Bishop, won't be able to equip it with staff/wand.
My other accounts which tio hacked as well:
My Aranity - a lvl 124 Aran which is the second char which I'm training.

This is how all my characters looked like, meso = 0, storage = 0, items = gone / dropped.

Help, recover my characters. I'm on my way to 200.

Aranity's New Hair Style

Well, Aranity is my Aran character and she's going to change her hairstyle.
Where to get the haircut and what type of cut's there to offer?
Hmmm, have a look at this (by hell0kitty) forum and this (by Vanity) forum where the TS actually spend an effort to put in all type of hairstyle available in MapleSEA.

As there's a few of style that she likes, so she leave it to the hairstylist to decide for her, which means getting a regular cut will be enough. (Just pray that she don't get an ugly hair cut).

First, she gets a REG Amoria Hairstyle Coupon (5K ACash) from Cash Shop. If you would like a specific hairstyle, you can get a VIP coupon which costs 12K ACash.
** Amoria is a recommended place for random female hairstyle and accessible from all towns.
Next, it's time for a change.
Tada.... new hairstyle: ROSE.

Bye bye Amoria Wedding Hair Studio. ^_^

As you can see, your chances of winning increase along with your registered character’s level!
Example
Example 1:
MaplePlayer01 is at Level 1 when the ‘Play Aran and Win a Trip to Korea! Event ends on 2nd Feb 2010:
At this level, he already holds 1 winning chance.

Scenario A:
MaplePlayer01 reaches Level 25 when the Event ends on 2nd Feb 2010. He will have:
1 + 2 = 3 winning chances.

Scenario B:
MaplePlayer01 reaches Level 55 when the Event ends on 2nd Feb 2010. He will have:
1 + 2 + 3 = 6 winning chances.

Scenario C:
MaplePlayer01 reaches Level 85 when the Event ends on 2nd Feb 2010. He will have:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10 winning chances.

Now don’t fret if the above scenarios sound confusing to you. Just remember that the higher your character’s level is, the higher your chance of winning!

Big Day: 28/09/2009

ShePriest and Mageong1993's Wedding

Thanks to all for attending our wedding and also for those who are not able to attend because not able to receive the wedding card (delay in Maple sending system).
Thanks for all your wishes... (I even get an angpow from Lym) *.*.

I tried to captured the video using CamStudio software but due to the recording duration too long (and causing the file size too large), the front part of the video get corrupted and overlapped. Not able to share to all the special moments taken.

Anyway, below are some of the pictures that are still ok to share.

Quest on "Making an oath"

Before the wedding starts, while waiting for friends to gather in front of the chapel @ Amoria Map.
Among friends that attend our wedding (many more but not able to get the ss as the file get corrupted):

mrxiaochuan - guild master

ChooBeeTan - my good friend

koney00 - my good maple buddy

After the wedding finish, this is the wedding ring which we get. ^_^

Thanks again to all and a big day to celebrate after the wedding... Go to oi oi... (*.*)
