My display named 'Anwar' was hacked from me. I had this username for over 10 years. I only found out because someone on my friends list let me know. I emailed [email protected] I emailed tipoff@jagex too. I need a JMOD to restore my username. The username was associated with my account, they changed my name twice to 'Anwar2222222'. That account was associated with a specific IP location. I need it back, this is my name, unfairly hacked from me.

This thread has been moved to the Community Led Account Help Forum.

Per the Character names page in the Support Centre , Jagex does not return stolen display names: "If your desired name was stolen or sniped by a bot we're unable to return the name to your account."

The fact that your display name was hijacked, indicate that your account was not secure. You should ensure that your computer and your registered email are both secure. You should also make sure that you are taking advantage of all the account security tools available, such as a Bank Pin and RuneScape Authenticator

The following resources should provide you with the information you need:

Recovering from Hijack [Info]

You might consider changing your RuneScape Account to a Jagex Account for increased security. See
