: è surfaced on PS4 a new glitch that is terrorizing the community. It is a message that contains a particular special character that, if received on your console, the locks forcing the owner to reset it to factory settings.

Sony hasn't officially commented on the problem but waiting for an update that fixes the bug, you can prevent this by setting the Privacy of Private messages.

Here's how: go into Settings > Personal Settings > Privacy settings > Account Management/Messaging and from there select Only Friends (if you trust the people you have on your friends list) or None (size recommended, especially if you have many friends on PSN).

We will update you when there will be news on the final resolution of this problem!
