Title: My account hacked
Post by: majsta on December 08, 2016, 11:01:02 AM
I just want to say that my account is hacked and someone took over my password sending bunch of Pm about some loans or something so until I clear this no one should reply to "my" PM or whatever.
Question is I was quick and changed password before other person did. He was sending over PM my password and everything. Point is that I don't know could he be still logged in with my old password and do some other harm. I see that he was trying to access with this pass to every exchange.

Is that possible? Could there be multiple logins at the same time for an account?
Doesn't the old session get signed out when there is a new login?

Hi, don't know what happened but now all looks ok, at least no one used my account to send PM or post something. I guess that it was pure luck that I was near my PC when this happened and i was faster to stop this but still wonder how he got my pass and that need further investigation.

Possibly,your system is hacked or you have installed a malware.Clean up your computer as soon as possible.
According to seclog,your password was changed Today at 10:55:02 AM - majsta - password changed.Did you change at this point of time ? He already has control over the email associated with your bitcointalk account.Change your email's password right away!

Yes that was me who changed password. I ll see what happened on other sides and check my mail. I have nothing valuable he could desire to have but sending some PM about asking loan could kill my reputation here on this forum and that's why this is bad.
