I guess I don't get what you're trying to show with that screenshot. (Your character is from 2006 but only has 850k skill points... it must be an alt? Yes, I play EVE).

I would recommend picking stronger passwords (he probably brute forced it from some dictionary file, I don't think people can really "hack" accounts apart from guessing the password.

Far more likely to be a case of social engineering. I remember Runescape was rampant with tricks and scams to try and get people to reveal their password, or hand over important items. I used to hear about fake websites that asked you to "login" using your Runescape account name and password.
