Hey guys, I want to share with you my incident, and maybe helping some of you to avoid a similar fate:
Yesterday I was the proud owner of almost 1 billion in bounties and discovery data, all made here in Colonia. I did NOT cash that out, in order to sell the data back on the bubble for a better price. And I was keeping the bounties for later, to use that money in order to transfer some ships you cannot buy here in Colonia.
But today, after I logged , the game starts giving me that screen of "discovery" each time I was passing a system - even if I mapped that system fully, long ago, and each day I pass there 10-20 times !
So, I wondered, why is this now a "new" discovery" ?!
My bookmarks were still there, unaffected - places where to mine, where to hunt, etc - so I suppose this must be some glitch.
But once I docked to Jacques Station, here in Colonia, I went checking with the "legal authority" the total value of my bounties - and to my total dismay - ALL gone !
From hundreds of millions, now just some pathetic 3-4 millions ( and that JUST from 3-4 kills of NPC Pirates interdicting me in last 15-20 minutes !
I checked then the discovery data - dozens of millions - also missing !
I check my balance on INARA just to be sure I did not cash-in all my credits - but no, my balance is near for what yesterday, BEFORE this happened...
So NO, I do NOT cash out the credits without realizing.
I open a ticket, but I do not know how this will be solved....
So, guys, if you are in Colonia, better cash in your bounties / discovery credits, and maybe avoid, like that, such a nasty surprise...
