Do not click on any links sent by unknown users, if you believe a link is malicious then report it immediately. – You should follow the same guidelines as for all other websites and games: make sure your operating system, web browsers and antivirus are up to date. Lastly I would like to go over a few frequently asked questions: New ranking season will start once the new banlist comes out. The beta testing for link summoning is nearly over, we are planning to release an update next week that will fix the majority of bugs currently present in the game, new link monsters will be added, match dueling will be enabled once again. All relevant information about any hacking attempts is forwarded to the proper authorities. We already purchased DDOS protection earlier this month however we will be upgrading the servers later this week in order to fix the lag and crashing that sometimes occurs during peak hours. We have received tremendous support from the Yu-Gi-Oh! community, both in the form of donations and the users offering to help us improve the game. If the game asks you to visit the ygopro website then please close the game and wait 30 minutes before trying to log in again, we will be making some changes thought the day to prevent other types of attacks in the future and it might result in some brief downtime. We were able to identify how the hackers hijacked the website and have closed this security hole. Our website has been restored however I would like to ask everyone to wait 24 hours before accessing it again, if you already have the game installed on your computer then you can log in and continue playing. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused anyone, over the last 6 months we have seen a drastic increase in attacks against our game and other Yu-Gi-Oh! related property, this includes anything from legal attacks by copyright trolls all the way to spammers, daily DDOS attacks and increasingly sophisticated hacking attempts. On a side note we don’t store any personal data on our servers and as such no data can be stolen from us, all donations are processed entirely through PayPal. Please note that this only applies to users who visited the website, others who were only playing the game were not affected.
If you visited our website today and you don’t have an antivirus, please install a trusted antivirus and scan your computer to ensure you weren’t one of the users affected. Most antivirus programs were able to detect and immediately remove this file. This is a critical announcement from Kaiba Corporation, earlier today our official ygopro website was compromised, the hackers responsible were able to force download a malicious file disguised as an update to some users who visited our website today.
