The Golden Age of Minecraft's ILLEGAL Accounts

  • I've been making videos on illegal "invalid" accounts since May of 2020, and there's been quite a few of them at that. But for years now, I've been working with old accounts and old stories, since there hasn't been many new discoveries... until the start of 2021. Whether because of migration, or higher account prices, or simply boredom, new illegal usernames are popping up left and right, faster than anyone has ever seen. In this episode of Minecraft Uncovered, we take a look at the golden age of illegal Minecraft accounts.

      @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
      @mcbyt  2 роки тому +4

      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)

    • @scarecrow8201
      @scarecrow8201 2 роки тому +2

      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 personally disagree, but you're entitled to that opinion.

    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. In multiple videos now, I've even given tutorials on how to keep your account safe and secure, because the sad truth is that hackers won't ever stop hacking, and thieves won't ever stop thieving. 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.
