Whats going on here? Ton of russian scammers hijacking "legitimate" 2p2ers accounts?
"Wowlucky" tried to scam me as well, mods also look into "Suchsickaments"
They have recent normal posting history but now either have turned into scammers or their accounts (and I suspect many others) are being actively hijacked, maybe this has something to do with a global 2p2 password leak? Or a bad link that perhaps both of them clicked?
Well i guess im the biggest fish ever. I was just scammed again, I imagine from same person. Account suchsickaments. I guess a bunch of old accounts have been hacked?
sup guys - sorry this happened to you - were these 2+2 accts, skype convos, both, other? pls forward me any 2+2 PMs and if anything happened on skype, we can exchange usernames via PM so that we can get in touch on there + you can forward stuff over
yeah both accounts seemed hacked/compromised. we banned em both, but i'm sure there are zillions more out there. as always, be super careful - check to see if people have been active recently + especially in this thread, get multiple references, try to verify in multiple ways, don't send first if you have a better rep, don't do the swap if things feel weird, etc etc! good luck guys
WowLucky here. My account was hacked. I am sorry that this happened to you, 2eazy. It makes me sick that there are people out there that scam members of our community. I am not sure how my account was compromised, but I’ve changed all of my passwords and sent out a message on twitter to not respond to any swap requests from anyone claiming to be me.

A Skype account by the name of Wow Lucky, tried to get me. I didn't send
Thanks for letting me know. This would be an impersonation (not a hack). My skype name isn’t ‘WowLucky’. Passwords updated and 2FA enable on my Skype account now.
