Hello,
(Mods please read)
I’m confused as to what has happened over the past few days.
Yesterday morning I hoped on War Thunder to play a few games with one of my friends, we played a few custom battles before we got off. Later that day, we resumed playing custom battles until we both got off again. I didn’t notice anything odd until this morning, when my Golden Eagles balance had jumped from 39 to around 660 without me purchasing them. Looking at the screenshots from yesterday, there were 39 in the morning, however, the screenshots from later in the day showed the 660 GE, but I hadn’t noticed it yet.
My friend encouraged me to buy 1 day of premium with the GE, however, later I became worried that I had purchased premium with glitched/hacked/bugged GE, and I was worried that Mods may see this as me cheating and would Ban me. This thought scared me as I have lots of hours and spent lots of money on War Thunder over my past 3 years of playing.
I’ve also had an experience when I logged on and my account pfp was changed when I didn’t do it, I changed my password and It seemed to fix it.
If anyone has any suggestions as what I should do, please tell me and Mods or devs who see this, please can you tell me. Because I don’t want to lose years of progress because of being banned by a glitch because the system thinks I’m hacking. And I love War Thunder, Its my favourite game and I’m always down for a match, I just wanted to make sure that someone important was aware of this.
Thanks.
If you have any doubts on your account security, always, always, always send a ticket to Support and ask them for help.

Send ticket and wait for their answer (do not send more tickets before you get answer from support).
In meantime be sure to double check e-mail address you use for WT. In wast majority of case, that’s the problem. People use same e-mail, often not properly protected with 2step auth) for years to random accounts. One leak and their account is compromised and not protected with 2step.
If you have doubts on GE, always check economy tab in your message box in hangar. Sometimes we return GE if we remove some modification from the game:
(for example, last time Server Update 16.07.2024 - Updates - Game - War Thunder
- JH-7A — the PL-8 modification has been removed, and the cost in Research Points, Silver Lions or Golden Eagles has been compensated.
You will see that return in economy tab in messages.
Thank you! Looking back in my messages, It was refunded GE from a removed modification on the F-16AJ.
