I’ve just lost all my Chromium Platings

I know there was an add-on that caused false positives for cheating with gold or something like that not too long ago. I also believe some players lost some coins due to it being called duplicate when it wasn't?

They never said which add-on but I wonder if there is some rare bug that causes this with one still? 🤔

No, that issue has been fixed. When Lazy Writ Crafter added a new feature to automatically take hireling mails when you open the inbox, the rate at which those mails got taken triggered ZOS' anti-cheat software.

That's the hazard of being like the most downloaded crafting addon of all time. Any slight increase in your addon's message rate to the server can break the (ESO) Internet.

At any rate, the developers and Dolgubon communed, ZOS tweaked their anti-cheat rules, much mead was consumed in celebration, much Xanax was consumed by customer service, and everything ended well, from what I heard.

Great now we have cheaters taking people's things.
What the heck is going on in ESO recently...?

It's a video game, things shouldn't have real world value. ZOS needs to crack down on these black market practices like a wrecking ball if it's the case.

Uh, there's no proof that this has anything to do with hackers or cheaters or whoever getting into OP's account. Let's not start spreading misinformation that could needlessly worry people.

Yes, was a bit short tempered that day.
I hope it's not the case, but either way I don't like after market sales platforms.

Greetings all

Yesterday I received an ingame mail from support with all my Platings attached to it. I'm grateful that this issue came to a good end at last. My thanks goes out to all of you guys, especially @ZOS_Kevin! I'm not sure if these requests would ever be heard without you.

Have a good weekend y'all and stay safe.

Since I noticed post on the topic of lost items from craft bag I now use a spreadsheet to record my stock of notable items such as,

all improvement mats; green to gold for the 4 trades
nirncrux; potent and fortified
Jewelry trait stones (simple 3 excluded)
Ruby level, metal, cloth, wood + platinum

As an active crafter I have a LOT of each of the above

Just this week I noted also my stock of style stones too as well as Hakeijo

I hope it does not happen to me but at least I have now some way of identifying a loss.
