Always. Yes.

sorry to hear that someone out there likes, and has nothing better to do than go hunting for victims, and you happened to be unlucky enough to experience their exploits

i sit in wonder at the intelligence of some of the people here, and the help you have received.

seriously tho, if you have the belief that your passwords were taken from you, i would go through and change any passwords you have , it maybe hard to deal with at first, but in the outcome it is the only option you have

if he/she got that close, dont go leaving an open door

just my 2 bob

good luck sorting it all out

The username/password I used for Yahoo (which is now changed) is the same as my company ID/Password.

With my Company ID, I have options for Inventory Management, and Pricing.

I highly doubt the person that has my password will have access to my company's system, but, Would it be a good idea to change my password just to be on the safe side? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14394899 Mon, 19 Sep 2005 04:26:17 EDT Re: Password Stolen http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14388886 Doctor Olds :

I'm tempted to say hello to him in his language, Portuguese...

EDIT: Done. Entered his email address in the Name box and entered a very 'nice' Portuguese slang in the Password box...sorry, I couldn't help it. I don't like lamers like our friend here. (Don't worry, I used a proxy xD)

EDIT2: Found more information on the mail.cgi script:

»world.altavista.com/babelfish/tr···id%3D240

Apparently its been used for fraud.

EDIT3: Did a search for his E-Mail address, and it appears he was/is a member on "DarK FantasyZ" and "the-outback.net".

I was on yahoo messenger. I never go into chat rooms and very few people know my ID. Someone sends me a link to a page which appears to be a Yahoo Photo Album, It looked like a legit site and the URL looked legit.

At the same time, I was under a lot of stress from my ex-girlfriend so I couldn't focus 100%.

So, assuming it was a legit site, I signed in. It then seemed like a login page rather than a direct link to a album, so I figured the person gave me the wrong link.

A few mins later "You have been signed off Yahoo because you signed in from another location"

I was able to enter my personal info at yahoo, and changed all my passwords.

»www.geocities.com/login_xp3/login.htm?200514

That's the page.. from a quick look, it doesn't look "fake" but, indeed, it is.

I'm about to kick myself.. I've always been VERY CAREFUL and used to get stuff like this all the time and I NEVER fell for it... never thought it would've happened to me.

Don't ever say never. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14377670 Fri, 16 Sep 2005 12:55:21 EDT
