Having just had this problem I can give you my experience which will cut out a lot of the headache. Regarding this whole section:
@Cyter0726Step 4:
Go to Account Settings > Account Center > Sign out all Devices. You'll be fighting for access and control in real time with the hacker. Make sure that he won't have a chance to open or play on your MLBB. Keep doing this and take note of the time on every attempt he's trying to log you out as well (So that you can kick him off when he is asleep).
Always repeat this step everytime he logs in. For me I stayed awake for 20 hrs to kick him off. Or else he'll deliberately ban your account by using map hacks, cheats, etc.
Step 5:
Try to unbind the hacker's account by going to Account Settings > Account Center > 3rd Party Account Disconnect > select account > Enter Moonton account to Disconnect. Follow the validation procedures as stated.
If you're lucky, you'll be able to unbind those account immediately but if you're not, you'll receive this System Message "Dear Player, You're logging in on a new device or a new region. For your account security, please contact Customer Service to continue"
Step 6:
"The trickiest part" and it takes a lot of "perseverance". The System Message you received has a backdoor process. You need to play ranked games, it does not matter if you win or loose. Invite friends to help you out. It will take about four (4) to nine (9) "CONSECUTIVE" rank games. If your hacker logged in inbetween your play, your count resets to ZERO as your region is changed again from where he is.
Every after ranked game you finish, it's important to try and repeat Step 5 until the System Message is gone.
I found an easier way to expedite this process. I first requested a password change for my Moonton account. I didn't actually follow the steps to change it yet but in my experience sometimes emails to change passwords have to be requested a couple of times to get them and I had that happen on this occurrence. I next found an easier way to change your location. If you go back to your profile page, underneath the settings button there is a location. This is the location the hacker/ person that bought the account is playing. If you tap on it it will ask you to allow them to find your location. I clicked allow, it determined my location and told me I had to play just 1 ranked game for it to update my location. This was good as I noticed the hacker liked playing around this time. I played a match, but note that I still haven't changed my password for my Moonton account. After the match I got an Offline Notice that someone had logged into my account, and it gave me the option to reset my password via my bound email address. I didn't need to request a new email as I already had the password reset email. So I then changed my password. Logged on and signed off all other devices. Then requested emails to unbind the 3rd Party apps. Once I got a new password it took 3-5 minutes to take care of the problem. That's with loading. It's the next day and I haven't had any issues except he added all his friends and they want to play.
So a short list of action steps:
1. Request Moonton account password reset and keep the email.
- 1a. You may also request emails to unbind their 3rd party accounts. I think you're fine waiting until that step comes.
2. Tap location button in profile section.
3. Allow MLBB to get your location.
4. Play how many ever games to change your location.
- 4a. Mine was 1. Maybe because I've never changed location before. Or maybe because I was in the U.S. not Indonesia.
- 4b. You may want to check when the other person plays before enacting all these steps so you can do it when they normally aren't on.
5. Change password to Moonton account. - 5a. I was sure they didn't have access to my email. I used the same password for a lot of things for a while and it was a compromised email/password combination I use for games but my password to my bound email is a different password with 2 way authentication.
- 5b. If you think they have access to your email then you should secure that first. Just change your password and/or add 2 way authentication. Then they won't have access to do any funny business.
6. Sign out all other devices.
7. Unbind 3rd party apps.
- 7a. I think signing out all Devices first is better as after you change your password they have to play several games/ tutorials and you easily have the time to unbind their accounts.
8. Request to remove secondary verification. Unfortunately you have to request Moonton to take this step.
9. Enjoy your account again and any extras they gave you :) or losses :/.
