Hi all
My account was hacked.
I never sent this message to Blazed:
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimgur.com%2Fa%2FmbifZ&t=665&c=NNhOu-nLY6y_0A)
Also I got a message here
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimgur.com%2Fa%2FwBEQ1&t=665&c=F1AbmFfwHoYxgQ)
The link in the message goes to 'zqpx365.cn/index/?user=ediston'
Interesting thing is I had only told Blazed yet that my account is hacked.
Is this a regular thing here?
Is 'bitcointalk.org' safe?
Best regards
Edi
This "VTL1"-account is likely the hacker, trying to maybe get your IP or something else by spoofing.
Make sure to secure your account properly now. Be sure to secure your e-mail too. Don't re-use passwords etc. Password managers are great.
Bitcointalk.org is relatively safe.. However, I'd suggest encrypting all private communications -- or use some other safer platform than forum PM system when communicating private things.
Do you know how your account was hacked? Did you re-use password? Or did you get spoofed before, and typed in your username and password into a scam website?
