Title: Account Hacked and now posting on Yin/YanCoin forum
Post by: yams12345 on June 09, 2014, 12:42:12 PM
Hi all,

It started when I thought I forgot My password and I thought it was just that.

Now it's started posting.

Seems loads of accounts got hacked.

I never dealt with honorCoin.

I have Pmed theymos but no luck yet :(

Regards

Did you follow all the instructions and send all the details specified in here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0

Can you think of how else the hackers might have got your password if you didn't claim for the free honorcoins?

If it was hacked there is not much you can do about it at this point.

No, he needs to send theymos a signed message.

Hi all,

Only thing I can think of is I used the same info for one of the many mining pool's I sighned up for.

I'm just about to send theymos a pm but not sure how to make a signature is there a guide?

What wallet do you use? You can google 'how to' for a specific wallet.
