That's pretty much effectively the same password. Sorry to hear about it. You DID change all of your OTHER passwords, right?

I'd go into each of your compromised Email accounts and make sure he didn't set up any CC addresses to get copies of your Emails.  Cuz if he did, all he'd have to go is do a password recovery for whatever you used your Email to register with and he'd get a copy of the recovery Email.

I'd suggest using Lastpass, use different passwords at 32 characters long with alphabet,numbers and specials.

no one cares that you got hacked.

just like the asshole who said he got robbed of 25k btc.

any thread that starts with "i just got hacked" should be auto-deleted.

Not true.  I care.  And not just sympathetically for the victim, I like to learn what techniques hackers use so I can better protect myself.

Truth is, "common sense" is not "common" at all. Then there are "hacker alerts" which really have nothing to do with hacking, but careless users.

I am really sorry to read this.  Lastpass, use it's password generator, don't use same or similar on anything, seriously sucks.

Scan with MalwareBytes, and Spybot Search and Destroy. It may not be over. Then get any info you can on him and call... Who do you call?

Best thing to do is to asks help from a professional regarding actions you can take to tackle the criminal otherwise it will be too late so take actions quickly
