FBI and NCsoft stopped illegal operation |
Ó
NCsoft is dead serious on keeping their Lineage II playing field fair and square. Recently, FBI Agents working with company officials were able to close down a computer game operation which is accused of duping profits by providing a fraudulent and dubious service to its players.The said company called L2Extreme was allegedly providing its users with unauthorized service and code for Lineage II. The FBI mentions that L2Extreme has up to 50,000 active users on its service and it is costing NCsoft millions of dollars per year. Wow, that's a lot of dough if you ask any of us.
According to the Ncsoft's general counsel, Matt Esber, "in the end those losses impact our customer support, product development, operational areas and ultimately they impact our player communities, most of which are trying to play games legitimately. This group in particular was downloading our version of the Lineage II software from our servers, costing us close to a million dollars in realized bandwidth costs during the period it was operational."
The investigation is still on-going and to those companies who are engaged in this kind of fraudulent act, let this serve as a warning to you.
