Sony apologist: it's YOUR fault you got hacked.
If his password is as he says, he either got phished or he got keylogged.

No, but it's very likely your account info was shared with another site with the same password and that site was hacked and the person just tried to see if it'd work on PSN. Hell that's why my Xbox and Rockstar account were hacked ages ago. I don't use the email or password anymore.Sony apologist: it's YOUR fault you got hacked.

He owns the game physically.
Plus he wouldn't have my billing details. Though I did ring him as I'd forgotten both if those details.
I should say he is an adult, 20 in case you all picture an 8 year old or something.
I was just making a joke. Lol
I see the myth of the hacker who would infiltrate Sony databases to steal a handful of logins and password is well alive... /smhpsn is shit tier service
always activate as many security options as you can with them
What's the region? They vary slightly.For anyone on the eu psn store via the ps4 is Skyrim easy to navigate to? Like as a first deal or offer?
That's the scenario that worries me tbh. I do fuck all apps, so it would have to be through the browser. Dunno, if that's possible.
But even still isn't a password that long unique and alpha numeric too difficult to crack?

While we are talking about PSN hacking,anyone is getting messages about changing PSN account password?
I am getting like 2 message every week or every month.
Already have two step verification activate.
Sorry, you probably still understood me so try to answer my question if you can instead of pointing out grammatic errors I just want to understand how all these hacks, or whatever they're called, can happen so often.oh my god so many mis-uses of the word hacking. I am triggered
But I replied?Sorry, you probably still understood me so try to answer my question if you can instead of pointing out grammatic errors I just want to understand how all these hacks, or whatever they're called, can happen so often.

Account.How do we know the nephew didn't buy it?
Are billing details console dependent or account dependent?
If a game is not in the drive and you press down on the game profile. Doesn't it go to the button to buy it on the store.He owns the game physically.

Everyone is an idiot for not turning on something that wasn't an option until quite recently.

Account.
As is the setting to require a password on checkout, which can be enabled on the website.
(Which may not yield very much additional security but may help very lazy people to reconsider if they really need some random game they aren't going to play just because it's on sale.)
Sony could advertise it more to already existing user accounts. (I think some regions got mails, but I want more.)huh... yes?
Is Sony's security THAT dire?
Is it really that easy though? OP said he had a long password and never used it elsewhere.But I replied?

I'm going from memory but this sounds about right.If a game is not in the drive and you press down on the game profile. Doesn't it go to the button to buy it on the store.
I thought you asked in general.Is it really that easy though? OP said he had a long password and never used it elsewhere.
So, with 2FA, is it every time I turn my PS4 on I have to do this 2FA step or every time I sign onto the store?
So I have my PS4 auto log me in, enabling this does it mean I put the PIN in each and every time or?
no you only do it once on your PS4. if you log into the store from a web browser you'll have to do it anytime it asks for your password
2 step now enabled.
It's still possible it was accidental, if someone like a cleaner etc in my house hit my joypad, or my dad accidentally controlled the ps4 with the remote control but that seems unlikely. Will see when I get them the serial numbers.

A good tip for people, if they have decent memory, is to have different passwords (strong ones at that) for every new thing they register for. I know it can be annoying, but it will help prevent multiple accounts on different services from getting accessed as well.
Can we please stop these threads?
Your PS4 nor PSN has been compromised.
Imagine if off topic had a thread EVERY time someone got their bank account "hacked"
There's nothing to sort out. We as a community need to stop referring to what amounts to teenagers guessing your password as "hacking"
We're all password lazy. And it's not a surprise; PSN log in, Squareenix account, Uplay account, EA access, XBL the temptation to have them all the same is undeniable, but the bottom line is we need to be using stronger passwords.
