Hacking

[dbmp]

I got 4 emails saying the same thing:

Dear ****,

Your account on FileSharing Talk has been locked because someone has tried to log into the account with the wrong password more than 5 times. You will be able to attempt to log in again in another 15 minutes.

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What should i do? I've changed it to an almost impossible one... Should i publish the IP's here?

[flaVius]

Yup me too just got bombarded with that nonsense. Think that must be a link to steal your password. The email was sent from [email protected] .

[priyaiyer]

[thewizeard]

Anyone can now post an IP addy of their enemy/concurrent and get them banned here...now erm..what was manker's IP addy now ...

The point is the FST security measures, work... important is to know if he/she actually succeded in hacking an account...

[flaVius]

Happened again, looks like they are using a proxy dont know why they want my account so bad (douchebags):

[dreamtracker]

[thebazzla]

i changed mine just to be on the safe side. looks like they used a proxy, with all the different ips showing, could be a banned user trying to get back on with a good guys account

[dbmp]

Happened again, i woke up and had 2 more mails... :\ The IP's:

125.46.36.223

[Lizard King]

I received 6 mails

[lynx]

We've had several reports of this sort of activity over the last 24 hours or so.

The IP addresses vary, so even in the few cases where they match current users' addresses I don't think we can assume there's any link between that user and the hacker.

My guess is that it is someone who has got hold of a copy of the hacked passwords from bit-hdtv. I've got an incomplete copy (without the passwords), and quite a number of the members who've posted here are on the part I've got.

If that's the case, then clearly the reported hack attempts had different passwords from the ones on bit-hdtv. The worry is how many accounts have been found which had the same password.

Maybe Rossco or Reality could send out a mass email advising members to change their passwords if they had an account at bit-hdtv with the same name and password as their FST account.

[dreamtracker]

IP in my mail:

221.232.159.112
193.111.198.56
195.175.37.70
220.249.114.134
203.160.1.146

:shit:

[thebazzla]

i have just had another 4 attempts with the same ips as you dreamtracker (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/../../members/dreamtracker-168968) boy are you a sad person

[dbmp]

It's clearly someone who got their hands at that list...so, changing the passwords would be enough. Yes, a mass PM from one of the admins advising to change the password would be a good decision. Hope no one gets is account stolen..

[mr.Dman]

I'm getting them also
Here is the numbers
211.138.198.6
193.111.198.56

I got a couple too. And I just watched that FOX anonymous vid on YouTube. Now I'm really paranoid!! :lol:

[saulin]

Well it doesn't matter if they are proxies. They should be banned. In fact this board should not allow proxies because people using proxies usually are those with dual accounts.

[znik]

I agree with you saulin.
Proxies should not be allowed because they are usually scammers and hackers...

By the way, how can we now if an IP from the hacker was behind an anonymous proxy?

[dbmp]

Ban all the IP's in the world! :(

[kaffeine]

I got 7:

:lol:

Yes!!!


























No! :(

[sear]

I've had another two attempts:

58.216.233.166
193.111.198.56

I agree that it could be related to the Bit-HDTV list however I've seen the original list and I'm not on it so unless Bit-HDTV was harvesting passwords after the list was made :idunno: it's probably that idiot that was giving away hacked accounts the other day.

[Colt Seevers]

This is the price we pay for allowing BT related invite/account trading retards.

[tesco]

I don't have a BitHDTV account either...

[SAM]

agreed

well you don't have to be on the list. they got passwords but that doesn't mean fst username must match bit-hdtv username, so they are banging everyone with all the passwords (mostly torrent forum since probable victims are most likely there). since fst is well protected :yup::01: i would say it is useless, but considering they didn't give up, few accounts may be compromised.

fair enough didn't really think about it that way. so I wonder if they're lurking around here undercover or what because thy don't seem to have caused any damage, that is if they managed to snatch someones account.

[optimus_prime]

yeah, depends on the profile of the attackers, we'll see, i would be cautious with big trades tho :)

[sear]

I don't have to worry about that :lol:

[SaviouR]

got 6 mails , last 2 ips tried to hack me twice

220.173.139.172
221.232.159.112
193.111.198.56
203.160.1.146

[SaveFerris]

Why the fuck didn't they try and hack my account? I feel insulted. :'(

[thewizeard]

erm .. which "we" are you referring to? :)

[100%]

Somebody must have a really boring life.

[dbmp]

Indeed... :dry:

[maxehhh]

Somebody must need a little bit of attention although

[KSA]

No attacks 4 me, i think i am over secured :P


Till now i hope :lol:

[Serjikal]

Someone tried 7 times to hack my account.

220.173.139.172
195.175.37.70
218.7.48.22
82.198.23.197
66.28.139.242
193.111.198.56
212.239.25.142

[optimus_prime]

i think prolonged attack calls for sticky warning about bit-hdtv on the torrent forum for a week, as there is obviously good number of people unaware of the problem, and it seems there were few accounts lost.

[dbmp]

The attacks to me have stopped since i've started this thread... :\
