财产失窃谁之过？

Who's responsible?

“如今，全球范围内，虚拟财产盗窃事件时有发生，”美国互联网法律专家，格雷格•拉斯托夫卡教授表示。 "Virtual property theft is occurring today all over the world," says professor Greg Lastowka, an American specialist in Internet law.

尽管一些案例最终能够诉之于法，但大多数时候，这类事件未被报道也无进一步的行动。“当地警方往往对虚拟盗窃案件感到困惑，他们认为这些虚拟财产没有真实价值，”拉斯托夫卡说。“但是虚拟物品可以通过交易转换成真正的货币，这也成为罪犯们赚钱的机会。”

Although a few cases have managed to make it to the courtroom, most of the time they're unreported or not followed up. "Local police are often confused by claims of virtual theft, thinking it has no real value," says Lastowka. "But virtual items can be sold easily for real money, making it a lucrative opportunity for criminals."

为防止虚拟盗窃，“中国的网络用户一旦虚拟财产被盗，可以向当地公安局的网络部门报案，”腾讯的毛晓芳说。“我们会积极配合警方的调查并提供相关的技术支持。”

 In case of theft, "users in China whose virtual property is stolen can report it to the Internet department of the local public security bureaus," says Tencent's Mao Xiaofang. "We can cooperate with officials and offer technical support."

这里也要提醒玩家们注意保护自己的虚拟财产。毛晓芳建议“不要接收陌生人的文件，也不要浏览可疑网页”。此外，每三个月修改一次密码也会帮助你保护账号安全。

 Users themselves are advised to protect their virtual property. Mao suggests "not accepting files from strangers, or going to websites with a dubious reputation". Changing passwords every three months can also help.
