Okay soo.... What is your advice, what do i do now? I changed my password.
Check the "bitcointalk" url twice before entering your login details to avoid being compromised again Smiley

And since his sale has failed, he left me Negative Mark, even if i don't have any connection with him O.o . I guess nothing can't be done by that question?  Huh
Mods can remove it, however, it is rarely done since trust isn't moderated. Neglect this cockroach, he has enough negative trust to be ~=inexistant.
Since your account is safe now, you can lock the topic tho.

The trust he has left has no credibility, just ignore it. Trust isn't moderated and thus it won't be removed. It may be annoying, but it doesn't show up by default, and if anyone want's to deal with you in the future will only have to take 10 seconds to realize that it's not credible.

The MO of this particular attacker seems to be that they get your password through phishing links, they don't change your password/email so that you don't get any forum security notifications, and then they send spam and more phishing links in PMs from your account.

So apparently someone send to someone else message from my  account > Screenshot

Going to do that right away Invo.

Then the guy on Skype seems to be actually warning you if you've verified that this message was indeed sent from your account. In this case you need to find out how it was compromised and address this as soon as possible. Your account was registered somewhat recently, and isn't prone to the database leak that so many accounts have been hacked from. So it's certainly something on your side that's been compromised.

Well weird, I would recommend to perform a scan to your computer, do not use your email in other sites (do not reveal it) and do not change your password in non protected computer... (maybe your pc is infected?)
And preferably, you better could stake a message with this address later if needed.

He's asking to change your password himself? I mean come up they want access to your account. Don't give it to them. It's almost certain that your account isn't being sold anywhere, but if you are worried just change the password yourself.

Yea, but the person INSISTS .... for me to change password... Why? Isn't it little bit suspicious?
If he's asking you to change your password without him doing it himself then I guess it wouldn't hurt. But, don't do it through any links he sends you as I'm not sure how skype works, and the link could be masked to look like the forum, but actually redirects to a phishing site.

Changing your password won't allow them to get access, and the only malicious thing they could do is lock the account if they had access to the email associated with the account, but you could change that before as a precautionary.

The only other thing that could happen but, I doubt. Is that someone you've offended or whatever could be trying to get you to change your password in private to make it look like the account has been sold, and will post the screenshots of someone trying to sell the account, and show that the password/email has changed recently. Then again, evidence which isn't verifiable through a trustworthy person isn't really considered evidence. This is thinking beyond the box, and I very much doubt that this is the case anyway.

Change your password in a secure environment, and don't click on any links or download anything anyone sends you.
