IRC Imposters -Aron - Feb 05 08:59am |

Lately, there have been some reports of people's accounts being hijacked. The person fakes your nickname, realname, and if he has your Q account name, he fakes that too. It is not known how he managed to get the the passwords for the Q accounts, but please remind: BE CAREFULL WHERE YOU TYPE YOUR Q ACCOUNT PASSWORDS! Everyone who's account got hacked, should go to http://housecall.antivirus.com and scan their computer there. There are some virusses/trojans that steal your account passwords, so this might be the cause too. IF your account got hacked, please take a look here. Please remind that if your account gets hacked, and that person changes your password, there is NO WAY OF GETTING YOUR ACCOUNT BACK. This is Quakenet policy, so accept it. Anyways, please be carefull with sensitive information, and watch out when clicking links on IRC. That would be all, have a nice day  Edit: I just discovered that the person isnt actually HACKING the accounts, he just fakes them, by using underscores and dashes, etcetera. If you see someone you think might be an impersonator, send me or a JAK/JAT/JAC a private message, with his hostmask, nick, etc. |
