A hacker is on the loose and is emptying the accounts of various streamers for FIFA 23. Now there are more victims, one of whom even managed to creatively defend against the attack.
Who has been caught? After Elias “eliasn97” Nerlich, currently the largest German streamer for FIFA 23, had to deal with a hacker attack on his PSN and FIFA accounts, further members of the Fokus Clan have now fallen victim to hackers. Among those affected are Fokus Koray and former FIFA world champion MoAuba, who also plays for the Fokus Clan.
This means that the Fokus Clan is apparently a target for the unknown hacker, who has already hacked 3 members of the E-Sports team founded by eliasn97 in 2018.
Fokus Koray displayed the extent of the attack on Twitter with a graphic showing that the hacker simply destroyed his team worth 19 million coins. Quite similar to what had already happened to eliasn97.
Another victim is FUT Donkey, a very well-known trader in Ultimate Team. He also lost his entire team due to a hacker attack and was even banned by FUT. He shared the attack via Twitter and claims that employees of the “PSN Live Chat” leaked his data to the hacker.
But while FUT Donkey and Fokus Koray have to cope with the painful loss of their entire teams, MoAuba creatively defended himself to protect his expensive cards.
MoAuba uses smart tactics and the hacker can’t do anything
This is how MoAuba defended himself against the hacker: After MoAuba got wind of the hacker attack, he seemed to still have access to FUT and was able to protect his team. He put all his expensive Icon and Hero cards on the transfer market for 3 days at the maximum price.
This way he wanted to ensure that the cards could not be sold quickly and that no one would buy them on the transfer market, as the maximum price was simply too unappealing.
With this strategy, MoAuba even succeeded, as he reveals on Twitter. The only cards that the hacker could sell were the gold cards of Theo Hernandez (85) and Maignan (87), worth a comparatively cheap 85,000 coins.

If you are still looking for cheap players for your team, then you are in luck. A market crash in Ultimate Team caused many prices to plummet.
