MY ACCOUNT GOT HACKED

[Limits]

HELLO

I DID NOT MAKE ANY DEALS JUST TO LET YOU KNOW MY ACCOUNT GOT HACKED I RECIEVED AN EMAIL MY INFO GOT CHANGED. I managed to recover it, it was this acc guys.

"You are receiving this message because your email address is associated
with an account on bitcointalk.org. I regret to have to inform you that
some information about your account was obtained by an attacker who
successfully compromised the bitcointalk.org server. The following
information about your account was likely leaked:
 - Email address
 - Password hash
 - Last-used IP address and registration IP address
 - Secret question and a basic (not brute-force-resistant) hash of your
 secret answer
 - Various settings

You should immediately change your forum password and delete or change
your secret question. To do this, log into the forum, click "profile",
and then go to "account related settings".

If you used the same password on bitcointalk.org as on other sites, then
you should also immediately change your password on those other sites.
Also, if you had a secret question set, then you should assume that the
attacker now knows the answer to your secret question.

Your password was salted and hashed using sha256crypt with 7500 rounds.
This will slow down anyone trying to recover your password, but it will
not completely prevent it unless your password was extremely strong.

While nothing can ever be ruled out in these sorts of situations, I do
not believe that the attacker was able to collect any forum personal
messages.

[Retard]

theymos sent out an email warning people to change their passwords, maybe you got confused and thought you got hacked?

[wangkanai]

I got the same email.  BTT's ISP was hacked, and a lot of people's accounts were compromised.

[Outlander]

I received the same email and my old password doesn't work, then I reset my password via email.

[Jeremycoin]

So, if I didn't received that kind of email. It's mean that my Bicointalk account is not got hacked(someone know my password) right?

[pawel7777]

Everyone got the same email. Just change your passwords (+ security question) and you'll be fine.
Also, watch out for any possible fraud/malware emails coming to your associated email addresses.

[dopecoindude]

We all go that email.

It means you haven't checked the email account associated with your account, or you have given an invalid email address.

[joclixx]

not hacked just warning i got this email but my pass still working
if you can login change password for high security

[Amph]

that is a standard email, which is sent to all those for whom it is believed that the hash password(not your real password) is compromised

it's advisable to change your pass anyway

[Febo]

Yes i got same. Changed pass. And i think i did not had secret question at all. IT seems at time i registered i did not even expect to return much on this forum 

[bitkokos]

I didn't get that email but, who cares?
My bitcointalk account is not linked with my bank account yet 

[kingcrypto]

Every user info is in risk,so everyone should change security info

'and you'll be fine' lol

I don't know who actually is charge of Bitcointalk but he's a FUCKING MORON.  If i could delete my account here i would.  Place still relies on SMF V1 FFS even after the last super hack, and the owner knows so little about coding he gave root away to the webserver and prolly has no idea what malware was inserted into the code LAST TIME it got hacked.  Do yourself a favour mate when you say 'it'll be fine' and wake the fuck up.  Do I care that I am being an ass? No i don't.  Why?  Cause this place is a shitbox full of scammers, thieves, hackers - and it's all acceptable by you moderators who can't moderate for shit, and work for a retard who can't keep his own site secure.... and YEAH, I still don't think it's secure.  Not just because of the antiquated tech behind it but because it's maintained by a moron who gave way root ffs.

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

P.S.  Feel free to delete my account - I do not wish to be in any way associated with this moronic forum.

[dominicg]

We all go that email.

Well i didnt recieved any email from BTT and i dont know why. i cant seem to find any problems on my account

Verified! I received the same email. Your password was salted and hashed using sha256crypt with 7500 rounds.
This will slow down anyone trying to recover your password, but it will
not completely prevent it unless your password was extremely strong.

This happened directly after trying some 'free' VPN service from keep solid, stacked social. I destroyed it in minutes because, it was not free and slowed my down from 56mbps to 16.

I have already noticed unusual activity since early this morning on my websites, over 600 before I started changing passes.

The pass used was brute force for 400 quadrillion years or one lucky guess.

Time to go!

So your account was hacked and now you recovered it? I am not sure why you created this thread in the first place, nor am I sure why many/any one want to do business with your account (without escrow) as it is a newbie account (read: very high risk account to deal with - when your account has a higher ranking then the risk will be lower)

[NorrisK]

Nothing to worry about. As the mail states the passwords were encrypted, as long as you change it you will be fine. Brute forcing it will take a while and I don't think they will try it on a newbie account anyway.
