Had my account hacked today great, no idea how they could get into it. Its not alot of money but still pisses me off

Sorry if this is the wrong section didnt know where else to put it, but its a tiny bit of a brag and a beat for me anyway

it means you're an idiot and click on **** you shouldn't. get a basic malware program like malwarebytes or mcafee if you have it and run some scans

however i suspect you know this and are just trying to plug your ****ty blog.

For future, pick passwords that cant be found in dictionary...upper case, lower case, special characters, all that...
I 'think', keyloggers sit outside your place and capture all your wireless biz on thier laptop, or somehow have gotton a program on your computer that reports all your keystrokes to them...
Nice timing, you can fix this leak while your small rollin so they wont do ya when your all rich and fat...right

thanks for the reply by mole do you mean hidden in my computer?

nobody could have got onto my computer directly i know that for sure, and my friends dont really play poker and im 100% sure they wouldn't do this even if they knew my username and password.

Happy you can eliminate friends...thats what I meant by mole
If stars contacted you about an issue, your better off than some folks, maybe they'll have recourse for you..
Im a post BF player, so, I'll back out and wait for the 2+2 thread shredders to come on and tear this one up...gl
