BEWARE!! HACKERS ON BOARD!!
« on: February 28, 2014, 06:10:04 am »
 >:( Well Been off FC for awhile because I could not get my password for any of my accounts due to hackers. Most of my accounts had been hacked so I had to change ALL my passwords and What a MESS! It messed me up on just about everything I do on my computer. PLEASE Be Careful and if its NOT too much trouble, I would change my pw often. I change mine about every 3 to 6 months. It helps keep hackers away! May be a pain BUT may payoff  also! ;)

Consider using Robo Form or Last Pass for your password generation and storage. It makes it a lot easier. :thumbsup:

People are just evil.  They seem to thrive on hurting others.  It amazes me at how much time somebody will sit and spend trying to figure out how to make somebody miserable that they don't even know.  Or try to steal money from their accounts. 

And a lot of info people get is from innocent questions.  I had some guy I had talked to I met online in a board like this one.  He asked me very few simple questions I didn't think anything about answering truthfully.
He sent me a copy and paste from whitepages.com of my full name and address.  I about died.

So, think about it.  A lot of people use pet names, birthdays, kids names or birthdays or a combo of that for passwords.  And people don't think twice about posting their pet's names or kids names or saying today is my birthday or my kid's birthday.

It's bad everywhere now.  Hackers are at work 24/7 and they are succeeding at their game.  They don't care who they are robbing, it's a thrill for them.

 The best passwords are the random passwords because creating one that represents you is too simple.

another good idea is not to use the same password for everything.  it seems easier that way but hackers always tend to try one password for different things once they're into your pc
