PUBG häçkers Arrested for Developing Cheats, Using "Malicious Code"
By TANNER DEDMON - April 28, 2018
Several häçkers responsible for developing programs that impacted PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and stole users’ personal information have been arrested.
A PUBG announcement that was shared through the game’s Steam page yesterday confirmed that several people responsible for these häçking programs were apprehended just days ago. According to the post, these 15 suspects were arrested for not only unlawfully affecting PUBG with the programs but also for using Trojan horse software.
“Earlier this month, on April 25th, 15 suspects were arrested for developing and selling häçking/cheating programs that affect PUBG,” the announcement said. “It was confirmed that malicious code, including Trojan horse software, was included in some of these programs and was used to s†éál user information.
The PUBG team has also been working with local authorities while pursuing the legal situation and provided some translated information from those officials that includes a sizeable fine the suspects are facing.
“15 major suspects including “OMG”, “FL”, “火狐”, “须弥” and “炎黄” were arrested for developing häçk programs, hosting marketplaces for häçk programs, and brokering transactions. Currently the suspects have been fined approximately 30mil RNB ($5.1mil USD). Other suspects related to this case are still being investigated.
“Some häçk programs that are being distributed through the internet includes a Huigezi Trojan horse*(Chinese backdoor) virus. It was proven that häçk developers used this virus to control users’ PC, scan their data, and extract information illegally.”
It’s a hefty fine to levy against those who häçk video games, but if you ask any dedicated PUBG player, you’ll probably find some saying that this punishment isn’t severe enough. PUBG has had a longstanding problem with häçkers affecting the game and has banned millions of players through use of anti-cheat services with many more still to come. After reaffirming that cheating in PUBG is taken “extremely seriously,” the announcement reminded players that developing and distributing häçking and cheating programs is against the law and many players and indicated that these efforts between PUBG Corp. and the proper authorities will continue.

“We’ve upgraded our security measures, improved our anti-cheat solutions, and recently even added a new anti-cheat solution on top of all that. In the meantime, we’ve also been continuously gathering information on häçk developers (and sellers) and have been working extensively with multiple partners and judicial authorities to bring these people to justice.”
The häçkers arrested are suspects at this time, according to the announcement, but look for a follow-up from the team as the legal situation develops.
