This "JAG" affects everyone that browses this part of the forum, and as a community i think we need to share some ideas on how to overcome it safely, jagex stated that hacking runescape accounts is an unlawful offence and they will work with the police to find anyone taking part in it.
i'd hate for anyone on here to get in trouble with the police, so i thought id make this thread.

so what do we know about it already ?
- recovery questions cannot be changed once set
~this is good as it now means once you have the info your in. - only 3 tries are permitted every 24 hours, after which the account is locked for 24 hours to all non-permanent access.
~If you have a victim ratted, just try to get in 3 times, lock their account and they will have to enter the information, then you have access to the account. - Jagex's official response to these two concerns is to remind players to choose security questions they will not forget, and to keep their login details secure.
~All jagex are doing to combat it is advising common sense, and judging on past sucess, scapers dont have alot of that.
With all of these things in mind, i dont think hacking is dead.
its certainly a little harder, and you will have to cover your tracks some more, sell the gold quickly etc.
However, i'm sure there are things i've missed that are concerning others, so please for the benefit of the community, share what you know.
