As he and his mother, Amy Bates, heard this weekend, it's easy for teens to let down their guard when in the middle of intense battles. "Fortnite" players, including Jake, are able to chat with others from fortnite items around the globe.
Last week, another gamer constructed up Jake's trust and convinced him to deliver his username and password so the gamer can give him more skins, which are used in the match. "When he logged into his account, he took everything over," Bates explained. "The guy took over his accounts, but also took over his email accounts and changed the passwordschanged the recovery passwords and the phone number."
Any personal information that has been in Jake's mails, the hacker had, and because Bates' credit card number had been attached to the match, the scammer had access to that too.
"It's really frightening," Bates said.Not to mention, the buy fortnite materials crook ended up killing Jake's character, in which the teen had spent hundreds of dollars since starting the match last year.
"I think he feels violated," Bates said.Bates said she and Jake wanted to tell their story so crawlers do not play other children while they're playing the match. "It states on the game not to present out your information and, ya know, I am like, it's a lesson learned," Bates explained.
