The above was gleaned from the gmail account associated with another user account I have on BitcoinTalk. Luckily, Google informed me of the attempted infraction via another email account that I regularly frequent.

Passwords have now all been reset.

Hopefully you were not reusing passwords across your various accounts at different websites.

That would be so stupid if I had, not saying that I may or may not have done such in the pass prior to being properly schooled. My new password is D0n@ldJtrumP. See if they can hack me know.  ::)

Well couldnt you use the same password across every website as long as you had different usernames and they were not connected in anyway.?

Not a surprise at all, but the first IP was a proxy. https://proxyrox.com/proxy/77.87.174.8-3128 Second one has been used to hack other accounts according to claims here (https://www.abuseipdb.com/check/62.37.237.16). It probably is a proxy as well.
