The client reports the damage. It could be a hack or it could be a connection anomaly. This game uses the UDP protocol which operates on a "best effort" principle by default. There are no checks in place for anything so packets may arrive malformed, out of order, etc. This is fine for streaming where a few malformed packets won't have any noticeable impact on the perceived video or sound but it can't be used to transmit something like a Word document because that could result in garbled text. SA-MP and/or RakNet have implemented some checking on top of the UDP protocol, but I don't think it is entirely watertight.

For example 18 in binary is:

Код:

0000 0000 0001 0010‬

If there is an error and a 1 is transmitted instead of zero you can get

Код:

0000 0001 0001 0010‬

Which is 274. I'm not saying that this is definitely what happened but it could be one explanation.
