Hacked account. DO NOT TRADE WITH THIS ACCOUNT!!

Hey fellow POTN members. I have recently discovered that a lot of my accouts have been hacked and the person is also getting people to send stuff to my address and then signing a different name besides mine when the mail carrier of whatever type gets to the address. He has been doing his for over a week now and was even having people send money to my paypal account. Luckily I kept a different password and email address on my paypal and I never used my paypal on my home computer or network. So fortunately that password wasn't saved. Which is a good thing cause that's how I caught all this. I spent all day yesterday sending payments back to the people that sent them.

So DO NOT TRADE OR BUY from this account. I'll be trying to make a new one once I get this worked out. If u have traded somethin with this account I'll need to know about it so we can try to get ur stuff back to u.

Sorry in advance,
Elijah

Thanks for the heads up and sorry to hear that this has happened to you.

Hope you catch this guy.

That suck Elijah. Hope it all works out.

Elijah is a good guy, when he was selling things he showed pictures and was really easy to get along with. Sorry this happened bro, hope you can figure it out!

Sorry to hear this - good luck cleaning up the mess.

I hate scammers!

Ok they have a guy in custody that fits the description. I am trying to get in touch with the people that had stuff sent and see if it's theirs.

So is the 24-105 F/4L lens your sale?

Access to OP's computer.
Sends goods to OP's address.
Payments sent to OP's paypal.
Sounds like a roommate.

The best password protection tool in the world ...

And it's free. I have all my passwords encrypted and I do not know them. I do not save passwords in browsers.

ElijahEOS, have you changed all your passwords since the fraud, especially passwords to POTN and the email account registered with POTN?

Thanks for letting us know. Dirty dog, hope he/she gets nailed.

Hack

HOPE YOU GET ALL THIS STRAIGHTENED OUT QUICKLY AND EASILY.....
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND HOPE THAT YOU CATCH HIM!

That was my thought. A roommate or someone else very close.
