Can the killer message you in a public survivor lobby chat? Because it just happened to me.
Just made a forum acct for this
Obviously I’m not gonna name names, but one of the random’s in my (solo queue) survivor lobby brought a key, and apparently this nurse wasn’t a big fan of it. While we were all typing in chat about what perks we should bring and saying GL, a 5th name popped up and started calling us “baby survivors.” My initial reaction was “either someone changed their name or i’m going against a hacker.” Fortunately that was not the case, but after 2 of us escaped via hatch I saw the killer’s name matched the name in the pregame survivor lobby.
My question is how is that possible? Unfortunately I couldn’t get a screenshot in time, but when i added the killer on discord they immediately blocked me, so I know it wasn’t a glitch.

I've heard of this happening in the past but it was always someone using a cheat/hack.

I had a similar experience, but from the other side. One of my teammates told to the group we were going to meet a Huntress. We actually met an Huntress.
I think some people use a hack or something to see what's supposed to be hidden.

For some reason on Xbox you can message other Xbox survivors as killer during the pregame lobby

That's because you can see their username

Quite a creepypasta.

On PS you also were able to message the killer, without seeing his names.
That was because the party chat worked in a weird way back then, but since dedicated servers its not possible anymore.
