Forum:I've been robbed...

Literally. I've been robbed. On live, farming Crawmerax (I've taken to calling him Crominax--inside joke) with a trusted online buddy and one other person who is cool enough. He came for a couple runs so far and wasn't acting like a fool or a scoundrel. I found three enhancement class mods, two Specialist Maliwan enhancement mods, and one Professional Dahl enhancement mod. Things were good. No pearls but I had hope for the day. I decided to smoke a cigarette and get some coffee which requires a ten minute break as I must inhale the toxic fumes while outside (the nazis). I left the game in charge of my buddy (not naming) and told him I'd be right back. After I smoked, I grabbed fresh coffee and returned to the game only to find that my buddy/ies was/ere gone, three new people had joined the game, there were explosions everywhere, and myself and two others were bleeding out. We were in lower Craw Lair, in the hall. My character respawned with zero health. Shield intact, but no health. Seemed to be the same as the others and I prepared to close the game, I decided to check my inventory (I heard about the elevator/grenade mod) and I realized that this jerk had stolen my three enhancement mods. Seriously, no great loss or anything, but WTF! How did this guy hack into my backpack and take junk out of my inventory? It seems very dangerous to play online now, especially in an open game. Not only do we have modders, but we have modders who have turned into the common thief in the night.

Anything to add anyone? Similar accounts?
