i dont know the specifics, but if they needed the high-level account to get the target information than they would probably use several other accounts at random as well as the target to hide who it is they are trying to get info for

i just assume that if the people doing this are sophisticated enough to do this would also be clever enough to avoid getting caught

Lord A to StarReaper Nov11

This specific data is actually being sent to the client constantly and is in fact visible to anyone. While certain types of programs which manipulate and interact with the game client are specifically prohibited, an additional alarm or other form of notification which is triggered by information readily broadcast from the client is not. In the past many players have used many different forms of third party notification systems to alert them of incoming attacks. :)

StarReaper services for these alerts its frowned on but not actually bannable?

Lord A to StarReaper Nov 11

There's no official opinion on players doing this and it is not bannable.

This exploit was not an alert. It was an example of a program which which manipulates and interacts with the game client and is specifically prohibited as stated in your reply from Lord Alacrity.
