My PSN just got hacked brehs...

[AAKing23]

Somebody deactivated my PS4 as the primary one on my account and changed theirs into being the primary ps4 on my account. I been on the phone with PSN support for 2-3 hours tryna resolve it but they've basically been no help.


They gave me a case number and told me call them back tomorrow to possibly resolve it then but until then I'm locked out of anything I purchased on my account via the PSN. Be careful and make sure you change your passwords brehs I'm just glad I had no debit cards on there.

Do you use the same PSN passsword/email on other sites?? I suspect that a lot of people though therefore your info was gotten somewhere else and they used it for PSN.

I just removed my debit card and PayPal from my account yesterday.

Best of luck to you OP. I would be heated in your position.

Happened this morning, I saw that my profile pic was changed and that my ps4 wasn't activated as the primary one under my account.

For some other sites yeah but not all, I'm changing everything right now though as far as passwords


This is a wake up call

I only use Paypal as a middle man to pay for things on PSN. Id never put my cards on there.

Solved: Another PS4 activated as primary - we only have on... - PlayStation® Forums

This is a common exploit it seems. This link explains the issue exactly


Sony on that bullshyt

Luckily I don't purchase much shyt on the store anyway, only brought MGS5, The Order, Outlast and some other DLC's


But still the thought of another nikka having full access to my shyt has me like

Got mine hacked 2 weeks ago. Some dude from India hacked into it and purchased some next game for $35 since my Paypal was linked to it. Called them and they resolved it in about 2-3 business days. Got my money back and password was changed

Update brehs Sony fixed it finally!!!!



Basically an hour after I made this thread they reset my account and gave me my full account control back even though I'm still pissed at these nikkas


Along with my changed password, I'm also gonna use the 2-step verification for increased security when logging into my accounts. So now I get a text directly to my phone when anyone tries to log in now.
