It seems to me that someone guessed Gleb's password using the password hashes stolen in 2015, since Gleb didn't change his password since then. The Glebonator account may be due to the attacker trying a new password-cracking attack against accounts in alphabetical order, or due to specifically targeting Gleb and incorrectly believing that that account belonged to him, or because Glebonator is the attacker.

I still don't see the ones that were sent to me in my In Box, but that may not be important I guess.

I restored those as well now.

It's resolved, awesome.

Gleb, it may be a good idea to post a signed message here from a Bitcoin address that you once posted (the address that used to be on your profile perhaps?) stating that its you and you're in control along with todays date, so that people know it's really you in the hot seat.

theymos replaced all the PMs that were sent from my account, the latter ones being by me personally and should be obvious which ones they are. I still don't see the ones that were sent to me in my In Box, but that may not be important I guess.

Okay, I give! Why can't I now log in with the Gleb account but it's showing that I'm logged in?

The online status lingers for a while even after going offline - that's just how it is.

Yes, this is Bruno.

EDIT: I see that the Gleb account is no longer online. I'll now log off Al and try to log on Gleb.

True statement.

I'll accept that, with theymos was looking into it. He emailed me and let me know that my PW was randomized and to have me change it again which I did, hence now able to log in.

Thank you, theymos.

Are the admins logged in looking at my nefarious activity?

Yes, this is Bruno.

EDIT: I see that the Gleb account is no longer online. I'll now log off Al and try to log on Gleb.

Glad to hear you secured your account Gleb.
The Steams profile is also reporting the scam to warn users - http://steamcommunity.com/id/KingSalamander
Whomever the perpetrator was, they tried to mess with your reputation and failed.


I see that you changed your pw, bud, just to be safe. How do I really know that ...  Grin Grin Grin (TBC, kidding)

Later, bud.

Yeah, I was lurking and saw what happened.
Then thought of what we were talking about in prior days and the message your sent out last night at March 27, 2017, 10:17:39 PM.
Not a coincidence to me and ya I needed to change it up.

I was also curious if there is a way to protect against embedded sigs? Is it even possible?

Your right Gleb... I could be a cylon and I'm wearing my red dress  Cheesy

Looks like someone may have fell victim:

Gleb Gamow is scammed me Dont Deal With him

İ havent got overwatch gift left now


Looks like the hacker changed the Bitcoin address on your profile too:


Same Bitcoin address used in the scam PM to messe

Damn, I didn't see that. I did just now delete the address but not yet the sig.

Here's a clue, theymos: https://bitcointalk.org/seclog.php

Today at 12:42:58 PM - Gleb Gamow - password changed (I'm the one who changed it)

March 27, 2017, 03:18:24 AM - Glebonator - woke up (I AM NOT Glebonator!)

Corresponds with an attempt depicted below (any names erased were done by me for obvious reasons) ...


HiHi,

Sincerly,
Timo

Seriously, it wasn't me. I'm not a gamer!

Secure your account, mate.
I know he was about to scam me and i'll just play along.

Here's the story
He offered me his items in CS:GO games for $180
Here's a capture of his PM's to me.
http://imgur.com/a/LUJXL

Then i checked and contacted the steam account he sent to me.
Turns out that the steam account owner is not him.
Here's the proof.

Then he asked me to send btc equal as $180 to him.

Notes: Change your bitcoin address in your profile, it's the scammer's address.

He still PM me even after you PM me lol

Hey, thanks, bud. That email address is mine. Here's a screenshot ...


As you can see (maybe) I haven't open that top email nor any others depicted. I'm going to now so to view the headers and will post it here to see if anything can be gleaned.

If they got my password, then there's more serious problems because the one I used for this account is an uber good one - many characters with symbols et al. No way they could've hacked it.

Maybe you got phished or something.

Either way someone is logged into your account as you, and you need to lock them out.

I just tried something in case my password was changed. I'm on Chrome 99.9%, so I went to IE and tried to log in with my password and it wouldn't let me. I came back Chrome and was logged out. Thanks to Chrome saving the PW, I was able to relog in, but couldn't at IE.

I'm now going to look at what password is being using via Chrome advance settings.

Whatever you do, just change it to something new for now until theymos comes here.

Also make your you are on bitcointalk.org and not bitcointalk.pw or any of the other phishing sites.
