Someone Hacked into my Yahoo account.

Sun Feb 25, 2007 4:29 pm

Yesterday someone hacked into my yahoo account. I am very afraid that they may have gotten into my bank account through world pay, which I use to play an online game and pay for it. I can't even contact the bank because it is a weekend, so they can be having all sorts of fun with my credit card number before I can do anything about it. I have changed some of my passwords. I don't know if someone would care to go on here, but they could have gotten my PPT and some other passwords from my yahoo account too.
I think this was probably someone who wanted credit card numbers, so hopefully they could care less about little accounts I have made here and there.

Oh, I'm so sorry that happened to you. :( I hope you get it all resolved soon.

There are phone lines that are open 24/7 to deal with emergency credit card stuff, check your banks website, they should be able to tell you what to do.

Most credit cards nowadays have insurance already in place to deal with credit card fraud, although check your statements and make sure that nothing untoward has happened, if it has, get onto the bank... I know that in the UK, from there, the bank will contact the police for you.

Well I just changed some pass words and also I went to this one place that was in my mail where they could have gotten my credit card number from. But when I went there and logged in, it didn't display the whole credit card number anyway, just a bit of it and the rest were dots. So I don't think they could have gotten the whole number anyway. It is still scary because I had saved some school work and stuff in the account so they know my name and they know where I go to school and stuff. It really isn't anything that someone couldn't find out these days anyway, but it is scary to think about someone knowing it all the same.
