Gang Kidnaps Gamer to Get Password Using Fake Orkut D ( Hermits BEWARE )

An armed gang of four kidnapped one of the world's top RPG gamers after one criminal's girlfriend lured him into a fake date using Orkut, Google's social network. After sequestering him in Sao Paulo, they held a gun against the victim's head for five hours to get his password, which they wanted to sell for $8,000. And yes, the story gets even better.

Surprisingly enough, after five hours the hostage wasn't talking. The group leader had a gun against his head all that time but the guy didn't say a word. At that point, the crooks gave up and decided to let him go. The brazilian police then caught the four suspects, aged 19 to 27.

According to the police, the captive is the world leader in GunBound, a turn-based RPG-****multiplayer online game. Developed in South Korea, in this artillery game you get more experience points, offensive and defensive capabilities depending on your skills during battle, as well as money to buy more weapons, armor and all kinds of gear for your multiple avatars. You can only play with one of your avatars each time, but all of them belong to a single account.

The game looks to be quite popular, so the four gangsters decided they could make some quick cash if they kidnapped him to steal his user. Their plan: use one of the criminal's girlfriends, called Tamires, to get him into a date using Google's online social network Orkut, which is also extremely popular in Brazil. After contacting and seducing him, she told the GunBound wizard to meet her in a shopping mall.

But she never appeared. Instead, Igor the boyfriend did. Gun in hand, he abducted and held the player prisoner, planning to rely the password to his mates using a cellphone. Against all odds, our hero (or very stupid guy) resisted. Probably using some Stamina +357 spell. Or a Big Cojones +577 mana potion.

Whatever he did to resist the torture for a stupid game password, boys and girls, there's a moral to this story: if you live in Brazil, keep playing Tetris.

Now THAT is hardcore. Resisting giving up his password.

Hermits on this board could only hope to be half as hardcore as him.

City of God, I love that movie.

Pictures of the girlfriend or this thread means nothing.

Robbed at gunpoint ........over GUNBOUND? The irony and depravity is equally as hilarious. If you're going to rob someone, atleast make it worthwhile like WoW so you can sell it for mass profit.Vandalvideo

You're a hermit wannabe compared to that man. The way he used a silence potion on himself was awesome. That was hardcore.

Gladly. :D

Most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

Who risks death to save a password for a game? That guy should be shot anyway.
