Moneybookers hack

[hushda24]

I had two emails earlier from moneybookers, 1 was a failed login attempt and 2nd was password changed. This happened at 5.11am in uk time. While i was asleep. I have let moneybookers know it wasnt me,And still no reply ? I had no money in thankfully, And they didnt upload funds through my cc. Now i never had a problem there untill i got a security check to send in id. I rang them up aswell and man said add new email and new password. I did all that and this happens a week or so later ? MMMMMMMMm sounds fishy to me. Anyhow i am trying to find out how do i close the account ? Its back to vouchers and deposit at lads bookies for me. Its lucky it wasnt 10 days ago when i had $4000 in there. I am a bit behind on this internet lark, But it seems so easy to hack in to my accounts, Also do they have my email passwords ? Yes i have changed all passwords now,But surley they still can hack me ? So a warning to you all useing moneybookers and also any advice to me would be great. Thanks

when you recieved these emails from Moneybookers did they address you by your legal name or did it say dear account holder

if you are not addressed by your legal name then it is a bogus email to get your info an when you change email an password they got it

Good Luck

You were lucky - this time.

Next time, be more careful and if you get another email like that, call them immediately. Don't fill out any forms on the web when you get something like that. You don't know who your information is going to, if you're not too careful.

I have had my password changed for the 3rd time now since that 1st post. They surely must have my email details somehow to do this ? Its happening about 430am uk time every time. I am ringing moneybookers 1st thing in morning its very odd. They are taking no money tho ? And yes emails are genuine because my password has been changed.

Interesting...if it's happening at the same time every time, it almost sounds like a systems glitch on their end...

I assume that you've ran various anti-spyware programs?

One usually doesn't catch everything, so it's always best to double up on it.

AdAware, combined with Spybot search and destroy usually catches everything. To be safe, boot into safe mode before running either one. That way if something is loading during windows startup, it won't have a chance to circumvent the results of each scan.

I done a spyware check last week,It was all clean apart from interbet casino.
Thinking about this, To change moneybookers password,You need to click on link in email,Now these emails are unopened ? The password has been changed tho, So how can they change it without clicking on link in email ? So perhaps they aint got my email details ? Oh i am confused as hell.

should never ever change a password thru a email link
go to the site an change it again
also forward the email to Moneybookers
