In the original runescape i.e. runescape classic, someone found a way to hack it and edit their stats using a download runescape stat changer. I assume they put them all to 99.

How did they do this? I don't know, but it doesn't matter anymore. Why? Because this hack no-longer exists. It worked for runescape classic ONLY and the runescape stat changer that you'll find anywhere, is probably just a virus or some software designed to steal your account.

How does it do this? The "download runescape stat changer" records everything you type on your keyboard. So when it sees that you've gone to runescape.com it will record you're username and password. Then say goodbye to your account.

Unfortunately this scam works. Many, many, many people fall for this, the number of victims for this scam alone and probably in the thousands. Don't let yourself be one of them.

Make sure you do virus scans of your computer frequently, that way if there's a problem, you should find it.

You might also want to run a spyware checker, as not all virus scanners pick up spyware. Also make sure you've got a decent firewall running to make sure that nothing gets on your computer in the first place.
