Shotokan-kez Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Hey guys im mad and upset at the same time. After a short break away with family i came home to realise some of my internet accounts had been hacked into and my passwords changed. I was mortified to say the least. They had raided my personal email and my ebay accounts and i have had no end of trouble trying to sort it out.Obviously i have had to change everything that had my email address registered, and ebay has restricted my account so i cannot access it! I'm annoyed more about this because i needed to file a dispute against someone who hadn't sent me my item and i had items on there for sale.I now have to fax my ID to ebay in America or mail it for them to consider dealing with the problem. Grrrr i'm so frustrated...i mean why do people do this kind of thing? Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk
Jay Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 To make money I guess or through boredom if they dont take anything. They dont think ahead about the trouble it wil cause the person. Sorry to hear that. When you make a new accounts try to use different passwords for everything. I use firefox to save all my passwords so i dont have to remember them and just use a master password that covers all the other passwords. The key to everything is continuity achieved by discipline.
bushido_man96 Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Man, that's rough, Kez. Some people just get thrill by committing crimes, and making things rough on people. I hope that it becomes easier to trap these guys eventually. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
yingampyang Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Thats a descrace , they should be locked up for their crimes. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.
Shotokan-kez Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 It is truly awful, although it makes me think how clever they must be. I mean to change it all they would have needed to know my secret questions and answers, bit freaky really when you look at it that way! Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk
A_Train Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 That sucks Kez.My wife and I suffered a similar situation several months ago when somehow a hacker of some sort got the passwords to our online backing, and proceeded to withdraw $3900. We were fortunate to settle it quickly with the bank so that payments that needed to come out wouldn't be declined, however we were pretty much told that "You get one situation like this" and that if it happened again, the banks wouldn't be so accommodating, which ticked me off.We don't use online banking now. I play a wrestling game online. If you'd like to play follow this linkhttp://www.thewrestlinggame.com/wg.asp?w= 133896
Shotokan-kez Posted February 22, 2008 Author Posted February 22, 2008 Yeah A train thats bad, i was lucky in that respect because they didnt touch my internet banking. I'm also lucky that i have a basic account and so no overdraft facillity, so if anyone tries to withdraw anything it would automatically be declined. Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk
