@a I don't support thieves. Many of these accounts are in the hands of the original owner. I have worked tirelessly to keep the community safe from account theft, creating entire videos on the subject. I have spent days at a time helping individuals recover their accounts. I have denounced the behavior of several account thieves and scammers. I have made my stance on this matter very clear, and if someone cannot be bothered to research before criticizing me, it is simply not my problem.
Usually, but not always. There's a variety of ways that accounts end up in the community, so I usually just say "acquired" to cover my bases. Plus, not everybody wants it public how they got an account, so it's out of respect for the current and original owners, as well.
@@mcbyt I was talking about the accounts in this video, all of the ones "acquired" were all brute forced into and were stolen, the original owners aren't even aware of that. You say "usually" but cmon be real, all the current invalids thay are active in the community are all stolen, you can't deny that.
@@mcbyt I agree with Ron rod, this is stealing and hacking other people's accounts and is not right and these people, no matter what they think they are doing and what intentions they have, it is just not correct for them to be doing this
I remember watching this video 2 years ago. Randomly remembered about it and came back to rewatch it today. Fascinating topic and still one of my favourite videos on your channel to this day. Great work :)
True, but fortunately, the owners of these accounts are long gone, inactive for 10+ years in most cases. Not saying it's alright, but it could be much worse, so I'll count my blessings haha
2:29 the letters ı and İ exists in the Turkish alphabet and many Turkish people don’t realize those letters don’t exist in English so chances are both of these accounts are owned by Turkish people. (xEmrewarrıor is certainly Turkish, that’s a generic name for any Turkish player who grew up with the pvp community)
Wait so if you have a rare username people will just hack into your account and steal it and thats a entire community of people stealing random people's account because it has a rare username?
yes as the name is not allowed ur doing a favor to mojang if its inactive people will guess and then go sell it you dont get hacked if ur not inactive or not invalid
They use a UUID checker and have a whole list of UUIDs to old accounts, from my understanding they just run their checker and have it flag those UUIDs linked to usernames with invalid characters. The reason they keep these usernames so private after finding them is so they can brute force their way into it, steal it and make it their own and sell it, pretty much most of the people who discover them just do it do it to either sell, or for attention in a block game or both.
why do people hack rare minecraft accounts and now if you reply saying something that its okay or something like what if someone actually PLAYS on that account and all that data is just BAM taken away
Yes, because I explained that in another video. But the way they were created? Someone clicked "create account" and used some weird characters in their name. That's it.
I expect turkish comments in this comment section... It will happen instantly and everyone won't understand what they're saying until they use google translate.
I don't like how you're just openly talking about stealing and cracking accounts. It's illegal and annoying to deal with. I had my account stolen and it took 2 months of talking with mojang support to get it back.
I'm well aware it's illegal, and I'm well aware it's annoying; I've had multiple accounts of mine stolen in the past. But I think that talking about it in videos is actually quite important; it publicly highlights the issue of security that needs to be addressed.

It's up to the rightful owner to have good security, and I want to help them know that and learn how to do it.

Yeh, this was a cool era, remember new accounts coming out almost every day
The fact that there is a market for stolen invalid accounts is frustrating. Anyone who breaks into accounts to sell them should get a life.
True, but fortunately, the owners of these accounts are long gone, inactive for 10+ years in most cases. Not saying it's alright, but it could be much worse, so I'll count my blessings haha

Can someone explain to me how they find these invalid names? This is all so interesting to me.
They use a UUID checker and have a whole list of UUIDs to old accounts, from my understanding they just run their checker and have it flag those UUIDs linked to usernames with invalid characters. The reason they keep these usernames so private after finding them is so they can brute force their way into it, steal it and make it their own and sell it, pretty much most of the people who discover them just do it do it to either sell, or for attention in a block game or both.
I remember the first episode of the illegal account ps of yours and I love and still do
I wonder, if a invalid name account owner is still active on that account, are they allowed to aquire that account?
Why it says that the account type is legacy after they acquired it? They don't migrate it?
12:25 ahhh yes!!

@@mcbyt No exploits?
Not for any of these names, no. There have been invalid exploits in the past, but again, I've made other videos about them

What website do you find these accounts at?
If you want to look them up, I suggest mcuserna.me. But there isn't any easy way to discover an invalid account, it takes a lot of research.
