Attempted Account Hacking
Hi guys, did anyone else get an email from SB today informing them that someone tried accessing your account? I looked up the IP address provided in the email (188.143.234.6) and its from Russia.
Further research indicated that the IP address is linked with multiple failed hacks, most likely from a 'brute force' attempt. Change up your passwords guys, the last thing we need is Russian spammers taking over this forum FYI: to create a strong password use at least one capitol letter, one number and one symbol such as '@', '#' or '$' |
