Account Hijacking
 

Suggest you strengthen up your password fellow forumites…mate of mine who frequents this forum as ‘Lucky Phil’ has had his account hijacked…

thanks for the warning goldeee
didnt think it possible but just did a quick search
interesting reading those dark-side forums :eek:

yeah thanks goldeee,,hard to stop if someone is determined,,don't see the point thou?

I experienced another attack this morning.

I know who the earlier thrillseeker was, and have proof.

I can't believe people can't figure out how serious having accounts hacked could be, and see nothing wrong with conversing with mysterious newcomers with highly dubious bona fides.

are we talking about our propun forum account ?? if so i agree with Sportzfan and cant see any point..

Talking about this in public just gives certain types more evil ideas.

I can see millions of points in hacking into peoples' accounts, and I suggest it is in your interest to think about it for a while.

he's right
someone could seriously sabotage another persons spring punting comp's bets for the week.

lmao

I guess the original Lucky Phil can always 'rejoin' under a different userid, unless of course he only has a web based e-mail address :rolleyes:

Bit of research today after seeing this thread. Seems forums running on our particular application software are a popular target for some hackers. If you're still using the password you were originally provided I'd be changing it quickly.
