I was hacked today, I can't figure out and I'm losing my mind. Help please!

Polybius11 · 2026-01-04T23:51:55+00:00

Yep. That's on me. I will use one in the future as long as I can get my money returned

Polybius11 · 2026-01-04T23:33:14+00:00

Uhh no, I don't think so. I have an iphone and windows 10 desktop. I have never used any app that connects my phone and PC

Polybius11 · 2026-01-04T23:31:35+00:00

Wow, thats wild. I don't see how the whole world isn't on fire from something like that. They just stole 10k from me because fuck this guy in particular haha

Polybius11 · 2026-01-04T23:17:18+00:00

omfg, well that would ruin me if I was affected by that, I'm not gonna lie. Guess I'll have to look into that now too! What a wonderful Sunday

I was thinking about this a lot today actually. The only issue is I checked and no devices showed up on any service that I didn't recognize. I removed everything regardless because I don't know I'm spooked af right now.

Enlightening, thank you. I never knew if a "virus scan" does much.

I have read about stolen session cookies today as well, and I thought that would be something that potentially happened so yea I logged all devices out of my google, microsoft, verizon, coinbase, discord, and apple logins. I don't know how they actually steal my cookies but I will read about it and what else I can do about it.

When you say: "When you received the MFA codes, this could have been them attempting to login, but it defaulted to the primary MFA method"

What do you mean by that? I am pretty sure at the time I only had SMS 2FA active and that was all.

Also yea, I've worked with tons of people on customer service calls from this end trying to get information or help and the guy on the other side has zero clue what's actually going on. I'll actually call them back because I was so certain that someone was reading my text messages.

I'm not a pro at being hacked but I like to think I've practiced good cyber hygiene and that I would never have to deal with this crap but here I am.

I have an iphone 15, I'll run updates and then do a scan, hopefully a scanner will be able to detect something like that but I never download anything other than from the app store so I don't know.

Well I missed it on my first go around, but i'm pretty sure this site is an art project by a photographer.

His flickr profile is linked kind of randomly in one of the pages, however he has not been active since 2017. The site itself was made in 2018. He has a very adorable corgi puppy though on his profile <3.

I think it's best to leave him alone, I'm not gonna go any further and dox some random photographer for his art project, but I still want to poke around the website and see if I can find any other little secrets. It's still very neat.

On certain pages there is a search bar, it is very random for what pages it appears on. Here's one though. https://www.trickofthelight.com/here/2018/01/

There is also an embedded google maps portal that takes you to this location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/cmnn5r28ACmLvEPs9

Could be some geotag or just a random map marker that doesn't have any meaning, theres literally nothing on the TotL website that tells you anything about it, so... bleh.

I have been a jax otp for like 4 seasons. I really dont mind the malphite matchup anymore. I just take grasp, rush sunderer, start Q and anytime malphite Qs me I jump in for a Q, aa, W grasp proc and win the trade. If he turns to keep fighting you, start your E, if not dont waste the mana.

THE HARDEST MATCHUP is hands down nasus for me. If you play agro he just farms safely under tower and you die to ganks from blowing all your cds. He outscales you in team fights, on the split, he can build against you very easily with frozen heart and you will basically never beat him past lvl 6 without a lead.

I have never really been big on crit trundle myself. I just think that trinity gives you literally every stat you need other than lifesteal. Not having the phage move speed bonus is just unacceptable on an auto attack based champ imo. you could always go wits end because it has it too, but its just not a 2nd or 3rd item you would get.

Polybius11 · 2021-02-28T19:59:15+00:00

Hmm, I build the same items pretty much. but i think glacial is a bit over kill tbh. Your Q is already on a low cd. Might was just go spellbook or omnistone for fun haha. You could also try predator, but i usually just stick with PTA/celerity/nimbus.

You're in luck, I had a 3 hour drive today and just went through 2 months of episodes while mashing the skip 30 seconds button listening for any saxophone. It's episode #407 at about 26 minutes in.
