    Hey guys im wondering does anybody have any experience with there accounts been hacked? My account was recently hacked and the hacker transfered out all my best most expensive players for a bunch of crap lads, at a cost of a 16 point hit, i still have my wildcard and can transfer back in all the players but at a loss of 2.2mil. I am currently top of a 13 man league with the top prize been 650 euro and the 16 point hit could be a disaster, so im wondering is there anyone i can contact to reverse my situation back to the end of thelast gameweek or am i p***ing in the wind? Cheers for any help anyone can give!

    Your password is your own responsibility as is keeping your account safe and secure. As FPL is a free service I doubt anything will happen but no harm in sending an email. Your quite lucky you have a wildcard available! Just use it and yeah you might want to change your password in the meantime.

    Hacked? Or did a "friend" get hold of your phone/laptop and make the changes.

    You are damn lucky to have a wildcard available. Playing it will wipe out the 16-point hit, so do that but you'll just have to forget about the 2.2mil.

    The transfers were confirmed before the end of the last gameweek so the wildcard wont cancel out the transfers, otherwise i wouldnt be to bothered like! But thanks for the advice lads, appreciate passed on an olde email

    1) No, there isn't a thing you can do about it
    2) I'm certain someone you know did it to you.

    Erm, what time were the transfers made? If it was around 3:00 am on Saturday night I think I might know the culprit.

    More than likely this. Friend of mine has been known to get drunk, leave his FPL team logged in on his phone or laptop. A lad who used to live with him once devastated his team by bringing 3 **** spurs players in like jermaine jenas :D

    And yep, nothing you can do. Keep that team secure!
