This issue goes actually futher than you can ever imagine, as there is whole problematic issue about multiple small thefts, which are problematic in terms of punishment while the thief can achieve huge gain and violations can be neglected due to insignificant amounts (there were cases where someone was stealing few cents from hundreds of thousands accounts and it was quite a problem for prosecutor). And the whole problem of small knowledge of law in society as whole. But you know what? Ignorantia juris non excusat. If you do not know some law exists, it does not matter on its application.

Maan your logic… so if you have shit fence and leave your door unlocked and someone then steals 100 € from your table, then you would not do anything :) Good to know, I am sure your neighbours would find that as an useful information. Not even getting to the point that 91€ in Belarus are quite a lot, it is 20% of average net income.

This just reminds me of a video from my area where a guy called the police because McDonalds got his order wrong and wouldn’t reimburse him… and he ended up being charged with wasting the time of police by holding up a 911 operator who could’ve been on-call for an actual serious crime.

The world needs LESS people calling the police over irrelevant crap, not more.

oh wait. that’s the green police.

According to Polish law even your virtual property is still your property, and you got same law protection to it, as any “normal” real thing. So when someone steal your game account, he commits crime, you can go to nearest police station, tell them about it, and he will be chased by police, and prosecuted for the cost of government like any normal thief, for instance shop lifter. If he can not give you your property back in same condition as it was before he needs to pay you in cash for lost value. But, and this is important, the equivalent of “stolen” goods need to exceed 60 EUR.

So any home made hacker, don’t steal polish accounts, you can get to prison for it!
