Hacked

[phillihp23]

i recently had my PlayStation account and hotmail and yahoo email accounts hacked. I am frustrated and don’t know what to do.
Ran multiple scans of my pc and found no problems.

My PlayStation account was hacked about a week ago and I was able to recover it before I was locked out. I deleted the account information which had been changed and updated the password. A week later my yahoo and hotmail account were hacked. I was able to recover my yahoo account and reset it and a new password only to have it tehackes within 30 minutes. I was unable to recover my yahoo account. I run a secured network at home. Were do I go from here? How do I stop this hacker names Ryan. It is my belief that the account servers were hacked rather than me locally, not that the companies would admit it, at least not until years down the line.

Sorry to hear. These hacks are relentless.

I lost money due to hacks so I know the feeling. I had to do a police report and everything but there is no way to find these folks and as such, I lost out..

Stay vigilant.

I have had the accounts for about 18 years. I am now attempting to change the email listed on 100’s of online sites and changing passwords to crazy odd and long ones.

yeah, unfortunately, folks are out there to take advantage when people are not aware and steal identity, money, anything they can get their greedy hands on.. Sad state of affairs.

That really stinks and I hope you get everything locked back down. Just a thought but any concern on them being able to hack into your home automation? Locks, security system, and such.

You should get LastPass... it makes having insanely long and nonsensical passwords possible. I'm sure there are others like it.

Stinks you got hacked, tho. TOTAL pain!

I use norton identity safe so the passwords aren’t an issue. They aren’t hacking my network or computers. It’s the servers of the company’s “yahoo etc”. So the real issue with these hacks is that we don’t have any control and the companies won’t admit they were hacked for liability reasons, until years after the hack occurs.
