A peaceful slumber before the nightmare. A day well taken care of.

My mind wanders with curiosity during the night, but sleep takes me after a stressful day.

Since I suffered a hacking attack almost a year ago, I had changed all my passwords to be written on paper. I slept comfortably knowing that the bound journal locked safely away in my drawer was indisputably mine. That no amount of hacking could take this book away from me. My social media manager had done an excellent job of also recording everything down on paper. Sure, there were a few times that he saved it to his browser that I saw, but we haven’t had the slightest security concern.

Every time my phone buzzed, I answered.

Every time a new login was made, I made sure it came in from Brazil, and only Brazil. Nowhere else.


Every time something looked even slightly off, I was the first to question him about it to make sure everything was OK.

I slept soundly knowing that even though I’d been almost inactive for the past month, I had gotten progress done. That things were moving in the right direction and I was beginning to turn back to my old self.

I slept just like any other night, hoping that tomorrow would be the day I finished off some 10, 20k word commission that I had been working towards.

The mornings didn’t scare me.

Nothing could.

—

My eyelids barely opened, and my phone had been vibrating like mad. I felt a pang of unease in my chest—waking up had always been difficult for me, but I figured a quick check to see what all the buzz was about.

“Are you okay??”

“Whoa, Macy, what the fuck?”

“Why did you send me that, Macy?”

What?

I swiped up on my iphone and opened up Discord.

All of my messages I marked for later were marked as read.

And with them, a horrifying message full of profanity.

“Oh no…” I gasped. My hands shook, my body shook. I could feel the PTSD from the last hack coming back to haunt me.

The dinner I didn’t eat last night rose to the back of my throat. I fell off my bed. My vision blurred and my stomach did somersalts.

“Fuck. Fuck. No. Not again. Not AGAIN. No… NO…” I cried out loud past my normally quiet outer dialogue. I thought I was going to pass out. I was shaking like a magnitude 10 earthquake had just struck my home.

G*re. Horrific slandering messages. “I HATE MACY!!! I HOPE YOU ******”. Messages slandered across almost EVERY single PM.

I didn’t check the time. My hands were shaking. Maybe some people would still be asleep, but it seems the spam and shocking messages had already given me a block. My account had already been limited, but nothing more. I watched as messages flicked in from servers telling me I was banned as everyone began to wake up from the horrific spam.

I tripped over everything in my room to get to my computer. I had never put in a password faster in my whole life. I opened my gmail, only to find that my own email had sent me a threatening message.

My work email.

A ransom. Without a clear answer. From that email, along with a few others.

I panicked. I had been locked out of my gmail—almost all of my accounts were surely gone. HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?! I had 2FA on! I had backup codes! I had EVERYTHING on!

Messaging my social media manager with one hand, I shift click deleted all of the horrific messages that this supposed hacker had sent to everyone.

For some it was too late.

For others, it saved them.

With over 100+ people affected, and over 200~ people on my friends list, I had to act fast.

I typed a desperate message, realizing that my FA had also been hacked.

I told everyone NOT to go to my FA. That the hacker was trying to scare people away from my Discord to FA, the place where I have the most viewers.

A lump rose in the back of my throat. I feared the worst. What if they thought that *I* was the hacker?! After all, they posted a journal saying to add a new account.

“It wasn’t me!!! IT WASN’T ME!” I wanted to scream.

I was crying by this point. Hot tears of panic and shame.

After a few hours of damage control, responding to messages, and calling the few friends I had bawling my eyes out, my social media manager answered.

He asked me what happened. I told him. I told him that a friend of mine contacted FA, and that to prove the account was mine, they would need the info they emailed to one of my other emails I have.

I told him about the emails. The hacking. The G*re. The horrible things that happened to me. I confided everything in him.

He told me that anything with 2FA hadn’t been compromised. Because even if they could reset passwords, they couldn’t break the 2FA auth code since I didn’t want to tie it with my google account.

The authenticator I use is completely local, which means that some of my stuff is safe.

I gasped and began doing damage control. I asked people in a frenzy for help, proved to others beyond. a shadow of a doubt that I was ME!

How did they not know?! How did I not know who it was?! How could this happen!?? I didn’t click ANY links!!!

A day passed with little to no sleep. I woke up early, scared of the sensation of my consciousness coming back to me. To fear another hack. More spam threatening emails.

But they stopped.

Strange.

I did more damage control that day. I tried to prove to people who I was, and that everything that happened was a hoax. I told people to stay away from ALL social media, and continued my dialogue with FA.

They asked me for information I didn’t have.

Info that only my social media manager would have.

But where was he?

Why didn’t he get the info that FA needed for me?!

He was logged in, he would have records of his own IP and whatnot. What was going on?

That night, I had a pit in my stomach. I was scared to touch any other accounts—scared that the slightest poke would set off some sleeping trojan somewhere on my computer. I had cleaned it from top to bottom, but it was a Mac. Getting a virus on one of those was almost impossible, and Apple even confirmed as much.

I logged into another email of mine and noticed that my social media manager was still put as a trusted device. What if it was him?! But why would he do this to me?! Why would he EVER betray me after all that’s happened?


“I’ll remove it. Just for now.” I thought to myself.

The moment that I did, a torrent of messages poured in, spamming me with more threats.

From my social media manager.

On Signal. An app that’s notoriously secure.

The same message spammed to all chats we shared.

My shaking hands steadied.

I knew it.

I didn’t want to admit it, but I knew this might have happened.

Even after. all the time we spent.

Even since we first started doing Macy’s Stories with him here from the very beginning.

After all of the money, time, and even loaned money I offered. After all the times I offered him to start his own company.

It was him.

A sense of clarity washed over me all of a sudden. Why was I suddenly calmer now that I was receiving threats?

Oh.

That’s right.

Because now the mask was off. Just like scooby doo unmasking a villain, it was a lot less scary now that I knew the hacker wasn’t some crime syndicate, but instead…

Someone I knew.

Just like most hacking attempts.

I rushed to FA the next day with new info. I spread the word as far as I could. My heart was thumping in my chest, but now I had a crosshair.

Then, FA tells me after our correspondence that they can’t prove it’s me from the IP address and the birthday on the accounts.

I tell them that my Paypal matches me, which matches my taxes, which matches MY profile.

Sure, he was the social media manager, but I’M Macy! ME!!! How could… How…?!

FA messages me back.

They tell me there’s nothing they can do.

I feel like I’m going to be sick again.

I run to the bathroom and dry heave. I get a call from a few friends after I didn’t respond for a bit, and messages of support come pouring in.

They tell me not to give up.

“But the decision was final…!” I repeat to them like a lost puppy.

“Don’t give up…” A few people told me yet again.

Ridiculous. It’s over. Nothing. I can do will bring that account back—all the other social media platforms are saying the same thing, because they were made in Brazil on my request.

Even with the passwords, he’s locked out of the 2FA.

…Unless he emails the companies and makes up some excuse. In fact, that’s probably what he’s doing right now.

I sob. I gather ALL evidence of my account and message FA back. A few people on Discord offer help, and they offer to make tickets on my behalf.

I’m crying harder. Hot tears of gratitude and resolve fill my cheeks.

I wipe them away and organize EVERYTHING.

I message FA back and tell them something they don’t want to hear, but I tell them the TRUTH.

In the meanwhile, a post goes up on my FA. A picture of him with his nails painted, or a friend of his, logged into my account.

He uses AI to write most of it. An AI trained off of my stories. The ones he has access to.

The grammar is a little choppy, but funnily enough, the date and time, the keyboard, AND the clock on the small window PC he shows logged into the FA homepage is all Brazillian.

I point this out to FA. I show them all of the reports I’ve made to the authorities. I show them my ID, I explain EVERYTHING.

Then, the account goes down.

Dark.

And FA tells both parties they need a letter from an attorney or court result to flip this over, and that ANYONE saying they’re MacyStories will be expunged from the website.

I celebrate with a small group of Discord friends. I cheer and pump my fist. The BIGGEST platform has been taken down.

…But… I still have to do the right thing.

He’s spoken to me before about Brazillian lawyers. But isn’t the fact that I state in my description I’m an AMERICAN artist already enough for them to NOT follow a Brazillian attorney’s letter?

Ah. Well… Uh. I’m kind of at a loss. Because while I still have my Discord (even if the message to others saying the account may still be stolen), FA is a ticking time bomb that’s making my heart race.

I owe it to my clients… To my friends that have brought me this far to tell them what’s happening.

I reach out to a lawyer. I talk with him. I show him evidence. It’s submitted, and…

Approved.

Approved.

Then a few other websites come back. Carrd can’t help me, but he still can’t change the info due to me having the auth.

Then, Deviantart messages me.

They ask for the ID i used to pay for Deviantart+ with, a picture of me holding the ID, and a LOT of info.

Boop!

They give it back.

I smile, but I can’t do anything on it just yet. I don’t want people thinking my socials are coming back to life from the hacker.

There’s some socials I can’t get back.

And so… i sit here on my mac, typing Macy’s Story. MY story about how this all went down.

“Why?” I ask myself.

Well… Money. It’s simple.

I will not divulge the personal details about my social media manager. I so very badly want to, but that wouldn’t make me better than him.

But… Money was the reason. The plan was genius, actually. Now that I think it over…

1. Use a malicious tool to get me banned from discord (using my login token that he only had temporary access to, that's why he couldn't outright take my discord, or he would have), steal my email while I sleep, reset all passwords, and point to a new Discord.

2. Everyone leaves, I can’t warn them due to me being banned, and they go right into the arms of the only person I trusted with all of my information.

3. He’s essentially me, aside from my manner of speaking. Now just to fake like he lost access to his Discord, and spew out the next part of their commissions using AI models.

4. He has the files, the commissions, but I never put names on them. So… He just works through that, and then links a new paypal, and people pay him for AI slop.

5. He gets paid, and he’s essentially stolen my business with proof that says he’s the mastermind.

He’s the manager and the writer now.

Judge, jury, and COLD AI execution.

But he made one fatal mistake.

I actually know my clients, and my Discord stood strong since I converted my old personal Discord into my work Discord—that is to say, it used MY personal email, not the one he had access to.

Plus, there’s one thing even the most sharply trained AI Macy cannot replicate.

Feeling.

I have a very specific writing style, and conversation style. He’s been watching over my shoulder to post into some Discord servers, but with his non-native English, his posts sounds awkward and strange, or too AI-oriented.

I have proof. Non doctored proof. Proof of certain things I can’t mention here due to fear of being imitated again.

I am mortified that this happened. I should have covered the only vulnerability in my system, which was to not trust anyone with my work. Not unless I have the checks in place to safeguard myself.

For now, FA is back, and for what will be the first time in Macy’s Stories history…

Ads have been stopped, and new commissions have been closed (*)

I will still be responding to people I KNOW in Discord for the time being. I *may* review new people on a case by case basis. I will still be doing commissions for those in Discord.

But for the time being, this account is going to be hibernating.

In the meanwhile, I’ve actually gotten an incredible opportunity to pick up some amazing new work to pay the bills. I can’t go into detail, but if you’re curious, you can ask..

At this moment, I’m not struggling for money, but it’s to the point where I need to come up with a plan, and will do my best.

I won’t use AI on any of my stuff. I haven’t and wouldn’t EVER use AI to make anything. The very first poster I made on FA was made with AI, but that was because I didn’t know the rules (and it got removed, I since have NEVER used it for any art or writing related purposes). Also ALL posters that were made were made by HIM.

That being said, should I continue with this account, or migrate to a new one, I cannot say. Details will have to be discussed in a personal Discord chat to ensure safety should this be the path I take.



SEMI TLDR/TAKEAWAYS:


TO ALL MY ARTISTS I’VE PARTNERED WITH:

I will be reaching out to you in the coming days with information. PLEASE be wary, and know that my ONLY Discord is macythepink

If I switch to a new Discord in due time, or change my current one, or just continue as normal, this will be discussed in personal messages as to what comes next. PLEASE be wary of ANY new writer asking you to advertise your work. If you have doubts, or you feel your work might be being used with or in conjunction with AI, please let me know and exercise caution. If you see your work being used. in ANY unauthorized manner, please know that 99% of the time, you should be able to message the mods of the site and tell them with art file proof that you’re concerned your art is being stolen.

TO THOSE WAITING FOR THEIR COMMISSIONS:

I am truly sorry. I know your delays have extended LONG before this whole thing happened. Most of you have been waiting since before May 4th, 2025 when this all occurred, but I ask for your patience in the matter. I’ve been stressed to the point of nearly pulling my hair out, but now, I feel encouraged to keep going. Please do talk with me about your frustrations if any, and please do make sure to reach back out if your apprehensions about doing so prior have nagged at you.

TO ALL OF THOSE WHO FILED A TICKET TO FA/OFFERED YOUR HELP

Please message me on Discord. It was because of your fast action that we’ve been able to make this work. I truly never expected anyone to give the slightest fuck about a smut writer, but you’ve been so VERY kind to see the human behind this event.


TO ALL OF THOSE AFFECTED:

You deserved better than to receive that in your inboxes. I truly and dearly apologize for EVERYTHING that’s happened. I have a group of very close friends that I’ve spoken to on the phone, and will work to gain your trust back through hard evidence. I’ve filed legal reports about this incident, and I have a LOT more information than I’ve discussed in this post, kept safe for any peeking eyes.

If you wish to not talk with me again, that is more than understandable. This is why I waited after I got my FA back to ensure that everything is under wraps.

I WILL BE UPDATING MY DISCORD INFO TO INFORM YOU TO CHECK THIS JOURNAL/POST. I WILL NOT LINK IT FOR SAFETY CONCERNS.

MOST IMPORTANT PART!!!!!>>>>>

WHAT NOT TO DO:

Do NOT add anyone else claiming to be Macy. I will NOT be advertising ANYTHING in ANY servers without an update directly to this website.

Do NOT email my email address. Any emails or correspondence from that email have been compromised, and should be added to a spam list, or at the very least, no links/info there should be clicked or interacted with.

DO NOT review ANY other social media that is not my Reddit, Deviantart, or FurAffinity/Discord (macythepink).

Do NOT try to get revenge for what’s happened in ANY form.

Do NOT bully new writers.

Do NOT report any other account unless we have spoken with mods first to determine if they are breaking ToS if they show up again.

Do NOT add the discord relayed in ANY messages between May 4th, 2025 and May 25th, 2025 as far as FA or anything else other than my Discord (macythepink) is concerned. The discord username they gave with the word “fox” in the username is FAKE. If you have and are still speaking with them, please block them (do not report either of us, make the judgment as to who’s real by yourself, or by reviewing my PERSONAL paypal with ample evidence that it’s me.

Do NOT click any links from anyone that’s not (macythepink) on Discord, or here on THIS FA. If both places point you to the same PayPal link, then you know that I’m real.

Do NOT pay any attention to ANY FA notes sent between May 4th, 2025 and May 25th, 2025. Those were from the hacker.

Do NOT give up. Ever. No matter what.


Q&A:

What happens with this account?:

This account will be put on ice, public facing for the time being. Should I encounter any slander issues in shouts, I will talk with the clients on a case by case basis. Should the hacker wish to slander this account any further, I will be pausing this account since I’ve spoken to the FA mods and shown them my ID along with a number of other revealing things. You can ask for this info and I will back it up.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ANY NOTES SENT ON MAY 27TH 2025 ONWARDS WILL BE FROM MYSELF. I WILL BE REFERENCING THIS POST IN DM’S FROM MACYTHEPINK, AND ON FA.

Comments will be kept disabled on posts for NOW to avoid spam. Posters will be kept up, but links to this journal/post (THIS WILL BE POSTED AS BOTH A JOURNAL AND A POST) will be put on each poster at the bottom. You can check that this is true because even if I was trying to post malicious links on FA, I would swiftly get banned for doing so.


How do we know you’re the real Macy?:

Ask for my paypal records. Unfalsified. Ask for private PayPal info. Ask for the dates your commission were paid. Ask for live phone screenshares with all of my embarrassing porn to show you all the proof that’s been mentioned. Ask for dates that I got my acc back. Ask for the official email chain that’s spanned from early may to right this second, with responses and dated proof I’ve gotten this back. Ask for my tax forms. Ask me to write you something. Ask something personal. I have nothing to hide.


Will you delete shouts?

Only if it is someone reporting false information/spamming malicious content. I can speak with people over Discord, and prove that all of my personal info on my personal ID that ties in with my personal paypal that I still have tied to my PERSONAL email is ALL mine. But I won’t let anyone slander the comments. I will disable them for now, but new posts will NOT be going up on this account unless amply communicated. I will reach out to any concerns personally.


What will happen to Macy as a whole?:

I will be moving forward and getting through my backlog. I will be reaching out in PM.


Should I be worried about my personal info?:

Your personal information is safe. Discord handles may be compromised as well as a few emails, but everything else is fine. Your stories are compromised since they were kept in my gmail account, which has been taken from me. Your names/personal info/username are not tied directly to your story in the document. I will be moving to an entirely local way of storing this data to ensure that your commissions are still kept safe and private.


Fuck you, Macy. You’re a dumb bitch for letting this happen.:

That’s not a question, but yes. I shouldn’t have let this happen. I have cried more tears than water in my body this month trying to fix it. Please know that you don’t need to feel obligated to speak with me, and I don’t want to garner sympathy for any of this. Unfortunately, people do illegal things, and while it was in my scope of control, I left a hole open in my security. I am working with the proper authorities and mods across ALL sites to protect your stories, and to put warnings out about what’s happened.


Will you be okay?:

Yes. I’ll be okay. The path will be a bit rocky, and any help that can be given is appreciated. But I won’t ask for it unless it’s offered. If you’re willing to wait out the storm with me, I will give you what I’ve promised, just as I have hundreds if not nearly a thousand times before.


What can I do?:

You can stick to messaging me here on FA and on Discord (macythepink). If you truly want to do something for me, just a message with a quick hug or good word goes a long way. Your patience is the biggest thing I need to recover from this. Your help is all gravy after that, but please do not feel obligated to help me. I’m ashamed and emotional


Will this happen again?:



No. Everything has been locked down tight.


Why haven’t you been answering me????:

I’ve been spending all of these days (save for a few mental health days) trying to resolve the situation. I won’t say what steps I’ve taken, but I’ve gone FAR above and beyond. I have been gathering every piece of information (and there’s a lot) and organizing it into a timeline, data, screenshots, photos, dates, times, time differences, EVERYTHING. I don’t wish to ignore anyone, but do keep in mind I have roughly 40+ active conversations on Discord, and if I spend all day answering all of them, I won’t be able to make progress towards getting your work/commissions done.

I messaged the hacker/sent them something I shouldn’t have!!! What do I do?

DM me. We will discuss it. Please put this info in the first few words of your message if you’re concerned so I can put it at the top of my priority list.

I blocked you because of the hack! How can I re-add you?

Please send me a message on FA, or go into your block list and find the person that starts with “NAMELESS”. I’ve changed my PFP/Banner and Username from the hacked one back to normal, it’ll show when you unblock me. You will have to send me a friend request, so please make sure to reach out on FA with proof that we’ve spoken before for both of our safeties.


TO THE HACKER:

I’m sorry that I had to put you on blast. I’m keeping your information private aside from the proper authorities that must know due to legal/compliance reasons. As much as I want to tell the world who you are and what you’ve done to me… What you’ve threatened me with…

I won’t stoop to that level. You’ve committed Wire Fraud, Identity Theft, Fraud, Cyberstalking/Harrassment, libel, extorsion, defamation, slander, extortion, blackmail, obstruction of business operations, false attempt to report a crime, theft, attempted theft, and maybe even Grand Larceny depending on a few things.

That’s a big list. I won’t mention the steps I’ve taken to protect myself in this manner, but just know that even though international crime is difficult to pursue, I have a big network and the REAL me wouldn’t be afraid to file all of these claims.

I’m sorry that you felt the need to steal from me. I’m sorry you didn’t just tell me that you needed more money and wanted help. I gave you 3 days off, I stayed on the phone with you when you had panic attacks. I’ve known you for so very, very long. I’ve done my best to try and accomodate you, and always encouraged you to do your own thing, and that I’d help you and lend you my writing abilities to try and help. 

But I guess none of that mattered.

I wish you the best. I hope you make a company that actually succeeds, whether or not the appropriate authorities take action on the crimes you’ve committed.

You were my friend. You were like my brother. I had been struggling the past few months with my own mental health, and it probably makes you smile reading that. As much as the thought twists my stomach, I really did have big plans. I wanted to include you in making a more tight knit writing community. I have big changes coming, and I wanted you around for the long haul.

No amount of suffering can forgive what you’ve done to me.

But I don’t wish you pain.

I only wish you justice, and success, to the point you won’t have to stoop so low to do this ever again.



FINAL WORDS:



I am blessed beyond belief to have everyone’s support. Thank you a jillion for being here through the ugly and the bad. For those that have stayed despite the hacking and tried to get a hold of me, to those who believed in me, and to my dearest friends… Thank you so much for standing by me despite the difficulties.

You’ve been blessings to me. I couldn’t have gotten this account back without the support of all the people who told FA something was wrong. 

A big shoutout to the mods for getting to the bottom of this even if my emails were cold and demanding. I wanted to protect the people I love from getting scammed.

I love you all. Truly. From the bottom of my heart… Thank you for making me who I am today, and I promise that I will deliver on the promises I’ve made.

Note for journal: This will also be made as a post.

A petite, vulnerable little sergal Pal Tamer on the Palpagos Islands in none other than Palworld. Whilst forging for materials in order to build up your base, you come across a strange find...

Mother Earth as we know it has been under the fresh reign of an almighty superior race of jackal demigods, hellbent on using their psionic abilities to keep their grip on the world firm.

Karnas-45 is part of the human resistance that seeks to destroy these invaders, their last hope is a super weapon they’ve assembled through years of human grit and ingenuity, and a bit of a miracle blessing from above.

Will humans be able to take back control or will they suffer for their disobedience? The punishment for failure would be a degrading and horny one for sure…

Silver, Fleur De Lis and Rainbow Dash. What do they have in common? The three of them have been accused of an UNFORGIVABLE CRIME! Stealing the staff that belongs to the princess of the Dragon Lands, Ember!

Now the three of them will learn and their buttcheeks will remember when they’re lit up with dragon breath that they shall NEVER steal from Ember ever again!
