In FIFA 20, the scandal involving Twitch streamer kurt0411 continues. It has apparently come to light that an EA employee was hacked, who then allegedly lifted Kurt’s ban.
This is the incident in question: The streamer kurt0411 caused a stir when he had a meltdown during a FIFA 20 stream and lashed out at EA. During this, he spat on the EA logo and received a ban for FIFA 20.
Now a hacker has reacted and gained access to an EA employee’s account. He shared that Kurt’s ban had been lifted. Various fans believed this and cheered.
Fans believe the hacker
This was tweeted: On the Twitter account of Mr. Zaro, a community manager from EA, some strange posts appeared last night.
Initially, he wished the streamer a happy birthday and wrote that he would be unbanned today. Then there was an allegedly official statement from EA regarding the ban. It stated that the FIFA team had determined that the ban against kurt0411 was too harsh and that the ban would now be lifted. EA then also apologized to Kurt for this action.
Subsequently, there were some tweets about other FIFA personalities. He wrote that Owen Grech from EA was fired because he allegedly wrongly banned Kurt. The streamer Castro1021 was also attacked when the Twitter account published a chat history.
Is this really a hacker? It cannot be confirmed 100%. He does not identify himself as a hacker anywhere. Still, the assumption is likely, as the tweets cast EA in a poor light and should not have come from a community manager in this form.
What do fans say about this? While many followers quickly realized that it was just a troll, some fans believed the tweets.
One user wrote: “I had to look twice to see if this really is the right account of Mr. Zaro and it is. I can’t believe what’s going on here.”
Another fan writes: “Oh my God, he is back!”
What is the current situation? If you go to Mr. Zaro’s Twitter account, you can still see the tweets from the hacker. It seems that the situation has not been brought under control yet.
If you want to win against pros, then you have to spend quite a bit of money:
