In case you hadn't noticed, erepublik has been hacked allot lately. 2 days ago the eUK president attacked all it's neighbours, yesterday Romania took over Hungary due to hacks. Serbian president has been hacked several times already,....


Admin have always tried fixing this, but it's clear there are some serious security issues in this game.


This message was posted by the hackers yesterday (after they hacked half of Hungary)

Hi guys,
We are the people responsible for latest wave of battles.
We are sorry for any inconveniences our actions might have caused. It's not about harming any of you, fair and square eRep players. Our goal is to make everyone realise how bugged eRepublik Rising is.
Dear admins,
Without any problems, we countered your solutions several times during one day. It proves, that Rising is in no way ready to be launched. Of course, we can play cat and mouse for another week. You'll try to patch the big holes in your coding, we'll break in again.
The more simple solution is to return to V1 as soon as it's possible. That version was harder to spoil and more secure for all users. Please, take some additional work on Rising before you release it. The beta testing period should be longer than 2 weeks!
We're looking forward to restoring V1,
Regards,
The guy who hacked erep '

I strongly recommend everyone to not click on the adds as the rumour goes that that's how they get in.

oh, these things will always happen, and this time they found a way to screw things up with serious consequences...

And there are apparently really big security holes here...
( Guess they need to learn how to program :s )

At first sight it was only 1 line:

Look! Agent Plato is there. Smile

But when we have a look at its source code:
Recent hacks TJCimY
original size: http://uploads.mibbit.com/g08S1H.jpg
we can find the script in its 4th line.

all it takes is opening this article


That is why for the moment I advise everyone to not open random articles from ppl you don't know or if you really want to open them, make sure you do it on a account you don't have money stored on.

That last is something I'd advise anyway. If you have +5 gold, create a organisation and put every penny in there. Only open it when you need it.

If the old man was on top, I didn't notice, but I was attempting to create an organization to follow shadow's advice, and all of my gold (admittedly not a large amount) was stolen even while I was attempting it. I am happy to say, it has been restored to me today, presumably by the admins in response to my ticket.

that's good news, but still, this is not done!

If only we'd still have v1,...
