My Email got pwnt

Crono · #1 08-02-2004, 05:49 PM

2 days ago or so my emailed [email protected] got hijacked. Whoever it was was a gamer and had emailed magicaltux and even some other mmorpg i dont even play anymore for my account/pass.

Since I cant contact all of you globals, did any graal online staff get ANYTHING from [email protected] yestarday or the day before? If so, disregard this and if you happen to have this person's IP logged, send it to me.

I got my email back though, but now the person has my [email protected]. Until I say it's safe, do NOT accept any emails from [email protected]

Edit- On a side note, I need to know gmail's administration password. This person changed the email to send the password to his email and not my real one therefor he basically just stole my gmail account. I got my hotmail back with ease but i also want my gmail back. I dont want this idiot reading my personal emails and stealing my account. I will get his ip/email through gmail and then see what the hell there is I can do :/

Edit 2- Found gmail's accounts support, and changed the topic title so people will take this more seriously.

I reformated so I'm safe now. Got my virus scan ready, firewall on high (blocks trojan backdoors :o)

I've scanned with several programs too. Trend Micro, Ravant, AVG, PC-cillin

Got my gmail back. The person apologized and said that he had actually got my password through my question & answer. He himself gave me back my gmail so meh. What a nice person

dude the fact that he bothered to take them in the first place voids all possibility of him being a nice person, regardless of what he does otherwise o_o

The world isn't black or white, it has many shades of gray as well.
