Sigh still no response from theymos guess he is ignoring me. Also it most likely is darrenw88 that is the hacker since suddenly my post in his thread is gone and the positive trust he used on his account is gone.

Just for kicks the hacker thought it would be nice to try to sell back my account? What a joke.

No I dont escrow anymore.

My guess is password used in diff weaker site where database was cracked. Thats how 90% of passwords are cracked. I dont use a unique pass on every site since too much to remmeber. I save unique passwords for email and stuff like banking. If 2fa was an option i would have used it since all my btc stuff that offer it i use it. Using a different password on every forum and every site is not practical.

It is if you use a password manager or a similar scheme to store your password in a secure way. Some also have good results with "brain hash functions", e.g. a friend of mine wrote a small hash function that results in their passwords for the given site. The result of the algorithm is appended to a randomly generated password. Thus they only need to remember two things, the random part and the algorithm, to have a different password for every site. Its not as good as a password manager though, because its security by obscurity (as soon as I know the algorithm I only need to attack a single password to know all of them).

Why are more accounts getting hacked nowadays? Huh

Does forum has any security hole? You should share your experience on how it may got hacked?

We may be more cautious considering yours as an example.


The problem is not the forum, the problem here are the people... they should care more about their security.
Yes I tend to agree.Many people do not pay necessary attention to the security of their account which is very sad.I think accounts above Full Member are more prone to hacking therefore these rank members should be more cautious

For the most part I agree it is based on user.  But some of these that are not active it is possible that the forum hack a while back was still valid on password.  We never figured out (i don't think) who did and ultimate goal of the hack of the forum.   If a user kept the same password as then they now have had months to crack it.

OP since you say you know you have a hacker I'm curious what was the cause?  Did you find anything on computer?  Or no idea what caused it.

Yup, the problem is the people.

More than the 50% of members of the forum use the same password in different sites/forums... or email.

I was using the same password in different forums, till one of them was hacked, since that day i'm using different passwords (written in a paper with especial characters, to difficult a possible "force-brute" attack).

2FA in the forum would be nice (or something like that).

Yes, I think that in the new forum the 2FA will be implemented Wink (and it will be really useful).

How about security question ?

Thats not 2FA, its just another way to recover your account and from the last breach we learned that its not as well protected as the password itself.

I would not be surprised if the person who hacked the OP's account is an alt of darrenw88, as the OP's account vouched for his PS4 games

Bought 10 accounts from him a week ago for $80 sent him the funds first and he sent the games over right away deal went smooth.


hey guys, just saw this. its 100% not me. anyway i can prove it ?? ive bought and sold on this forum and have never wronged anyone. dont know what this is about. i didnt sell 10 to anyone
It is possible that guy was just trolling, IDK. Strange if this is the case.

I would not troll my own account. Like i said i already sent the proof to theymos days ago and now badbear. I just hope they can work on it soon.
I was saying that the person who hacked your account was trolling

They will see the IPs dont match either.

np wasnt sure. on another note still waiting for theymos so no one trust that account yet will sign a message if/when its recovered.
