Cheaters Hackers & Grieffers in Red Dead Online

A Pair of hackers have been harassing me by attacking me in the game and by hacking my computers, network, router, and cable modem. I'm not asking for help, not yet anyway. I've purchased the services of a premium security company to help me rid my systems of malware and hacker tools. It's my hope that I can sound the alarm that Rockstar and Steam have abandoned the game and (in it's current form) is FULL of security holes that allow hackers to learn your IP Address, user name, and available open ports that operate similarly to SSH. They were able to gain access to all of my systems and install malware, rootkits, and bootkits to all of computers, my router, and cable modem.Show more

If you are planing on playing this game (or any online game) please harden your system by installing security software from any premium security companies. I'm not trying to sell these services, but you will need one. Insure that your firewall is up and is set to public space. Even though you are at home your computer is in a public space with people who only want to break into your system to cause harm.

I've been unable to get even my own local police to look into the matter. Without their help to start the process, I can NOT get the state police or federal police to even begin to help. This has been difficult to deal with. It's my plan to go into more detail later, but I have to kick these people out of my systems and network. I've been forced using the computers at my local library. I'm grateful for their help.

Remember, an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure. Protect yourself! Don't let what happened to me happen to you.
