OK not sure where to post this but i'll try here. About 5 hours ago i was attacked 4 times and punched by someone outside of my level range. The attacks did not show up as bounty attacks when i clicked on the skull on the minibar, just regular attacks. I have not been bountied in quite some time nor have i placed any bounties for that matter. If it was just a punch i could see it coming from a punch help request. But this was 4 unprovoked attacks followed by a punch. He's just over 1000 and i am barely over 300. Just wondering how this is possible if it even is. And my syndicate's not at war.
The only way an out of range player can attack you is if you attacked or punched them, or went after their bounty. Check your feed , the good thing is if you do not retaliate after 24 hours all that player can do is punch you or list you.
