Does someone have access to the admin panel again?

In 2024, a malicious actor gained access to the admin panel within PoE and used it to access player accounts and steal high profile high value items.

It looks like it is happening again, as there has been a sharp rise in the number of players claiming to have had their account accessed and had their items stolen or listed for sale at ridiculous prices.

This is the latest high-profile example:

It's worth noting that +2 maps are a dangerous thing.
They can cause players to get out of their depth -

All I know is its 2026 and this company is too incompetent to offer proper account security. Why would I ever spend money on this game again?
It's probably one of the 10,000 different third party apps PoE has, or a fake app. Sadly almost no one posts the apps/websites they use for PoE when this happens to them so no one can ever figure it out besides GGG. Because the victims are so reluctant to share info it makes me think they're buying/selling currency or using bots....
most of the people who posted about accounts being compromised that I've seen all had wealthyexile
not in-game item, but credit card info....probably Xsolla or any place i bought something online?
This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee. About the username: Did you know Kowloon Gundam is made in Neo Hong Kong?
