warning members hacker alert

Post Reply New Topic

Best thing to do, for now, is to avoid any Facebook requests by WP private messaging. I have no idea what else we can do, otherwise, but I've notified the other moderators.

dwoolrdige's last post was this morning (my time, about seven hours ago), so she was clearly only recently hacked.

might be time for members to make a new password

Im sooo confused by this thread. I'd take a message like that to be just from someone who wanted to be my friend rather than someone who's hacked into anothers account.

Its got me concerned as only yesterday i sent someone a pm asking them if they wanted to be my friend. When someone wants to be your friend they often do ask about ones interests etc.

It's Facebook that's the problem, not WP in general. If anyone asks you about being a Facebook friend or something, don't reply from now on. Temporary rule until we can figure out until what's going on.

I'll be on high alert! Thank you, for the heads up.

I have been talking to her on Facebook and she is very concerned. Me being a security guy, I am also concerned for her. It is either the account that got hacked, or her computer got hacked and her passwords sold to malicious people.

Thank You Monique!
