  I was recently on my account 3 days ago playing golf. Now Today i just logged in and it shows that my clubs are gone. I had a R9 Pro driver, R9 Pro iron set, Daytona Putter, Taylormade Zsatin 54 and 60 degree wedge, and the Rapture V2 Pro Fairway Wood now there not there, only my balls are there. So i went into my transaction history and it shows all my clubs got sold back yesterday the date was 5/10/10 and i was never even on here yesterday. Then it also said that i bought some clubs and gifted them i would never do that after i payed over $30 for the clubs and now there gone. So is there anyway you guys could figure out if my account got hacked and is there a way i can get my clubs back or did i just lose 30+ dollars because i got hacked i really want an Explanation and if anyone has a clue of what might of happend please let me know. And if there is no way i can get my clubs back then that is some B.S because i payed 30+ dollars so i can have good clubs while i'm in the pro tier for someone who has to be a heartless idiot and hack my account i hope i will be able to get my clubs back.

  I sure hope this turns out to be just another user on the same computer, not a real threat. It blows, what happened, and I hope it comes out OK for you GE. Please keep us posted. GL

  My Father Also lives in the same house as me and So does my younger brother we have 2 desktops and 2 laptops in our house and i doubt very much it was them. But my father made my younger brother cancel his account because he was only 8 years old. I'm 18 and used my money i earned from work to pay for my clubs so i hope there will be a way i can get them back because if i cant i am not buying new ones ever because its not right that someone hacked on to my damn account and freaking sold all my clubs like i said before there are some heartless people on this earth that will do stuff to ruin people lives or in this case ruin the enjoyment of this game for me i am real piss all i want is the person that hacked on my account to come forward and my clubs back. and yes YankeeJim i will keep you guys updated on the status

  younger brother, not allowed to play anymore?.....maybe he sold your clubs and put them into his secret golfing set.. i think a little interrogation is in order! especially if he knows the passwords to log on to the pc...and you left it on remember me!

  I thought that too but he shares a computer with our father because i have a laptop so i can you it for my school studies without worrying of my little brother messing with any of my files. Also i have a password lock on my laptop that only i know.

  No diff there GE. WGT can be accessed through any computer. All he would have needed would have been your WGT password. 

   

  (Might be time to haul little bro out behind the woodshed.)
