Hacked Computer
Foggy:
I am enquiring as to whether any other members have been hacked recently. Over the past week my email, pokerstars account, facebook and paypal accounts have all been hacked.Today I have been contacted by another APAT member who also suffered the same situation,and mentioned that a further APAT member has suffered. In fact a false transaction has taken place on Paypal between us, this account has not been in action for the past 5 years.
On advice I have run several scans and found a worm on my system, this being " btmail(1)gen."
Has anyone suffered?
Please post on here and hopefully we shall be able to find the hacker

Seems to be very prevalent in a small community Chris, if the fecker is ever found he/she will have no place to hide - advice is run advanced scan NOW.
TightEnd:
I was, facebook and one email account. No problems anywhere else.
Scans found a programme I deleted. Believe it emanated from facebook
Have changed passwords, security settings everywhere and substantially stopped using the PC where there was a problem
Claw75 (Claire MacGregor) and Fandango (Carl Pilgrim) also affected. Claw has IP info
duke3016:
two step security on gMail
Facebook set to https (password changed periodically as well)
All poker sites passwords changed periodically
This Internet thing is so flakey :)

Yeah my Facebook, email, paypal, Pokerstars and my barclaycard all hacked. Kudos to barclaycard who rang me to tell me of suspicious transactions.. Paypal contacted me about transaction which was to a fellow APAT member. Also my Facebook was logged into from an IP address in Stoke on Trent, contacted Pokerstars but not been contacted yet so don"t know if account has been cleared out? Was playing on there last night till 11 pm so will have to check to see if any thing occured after then.. Some tossers out there who need their ******** wired up to the mains!!!
