Cannot log into any of my Stars, Full tilt and betfair accounts. All of which have some/significant amounts of money. Pretty sure someone has got into my email somehow.

Please can someone give me a step by step guide to what I need to do, I have emailed the above sites. Other stuff I need to do.

I am tearing my hair out here.

Cheers.

I wonder how long it took Trigg to work out caps lock was on when he thought he had been hacked.

So sick Longy, hope your money is still there mate.

Unlucky fella.


Best to check any of your accounts - credit cards, neteller, etc., as well as changing all your email passwords and other site log-in details as well in case your computer has been compromised.  Of course, might be an idea to do this from another PC that you know is clean and secure.

Hmmm I appear to have lost precisely nothing, apart from the cost of some new underwear and about year off my life.

All the money is still there in my accounts, just the process of cleaning my comp and binning the email addy to take care of now. Oh and getting in touch with the crap loads of bookies where have a zero balance,sigh.

Have you figured out what happened yet?

If you don't know what happened then they could still have that attack vector and do it again next week...
