Epic Games Sues Player for Stealing and Selling Fortnite Accounts

The lawsuit accuses Isaac Strock of using deception and data breaches to access accounts, selling them for profit, and harming the Fortnite community.

Epic Games has filed a lawsuit against Isaac Strock, alleging he stole and resold hundreds of Fortnite accounts using social engineering and data breaches.
The suit claims Strock deceived Epic's support team multiple times by impersonating account holders to gain unauthorized access.
Strock allegedly sold stolen accounts on Telegram, with one account containing 146 skins sold for $425 in Bitcoin in September 2024.
Epic's investigation found Strock's IP address linked to stolen accounts and identified his now-offline website, where he claimed to have sold 482 Fortnite-related products.
Epic asserts that Strock's actions caused significant harm to both the company and players, leading to resource-intensive investigations and account losses for victims.
