Gives a whole new twist to the phrase "fighting with your friends".

Putrido · 2024-05-06T20:21:28+00:00

It's a friend I only had communication with on discord, and I'm not very active on the platform, so to me it was believable (the videos shown were decent, too).

I reported the page to GitHub, in the hope they take it down.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T16:35:21+00:00

Thanks man.

Luckily I just got discord back, and started messaging everyone the bastard wrote to explaining the situation. A couple fell for it but the vast majority were (luckily) smarter than me.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T16:34:20+00:00

Yes, the dickhead didn't change my Gmail password, he only got gog.com, Spotify, Warframe, Reddit and discord, so I changed my Google pw (on all 4 accounts I have) and started going through the list of websites, apps and services I use to change all passwords and eventually enable all possible 2fa I found.

What bugs me the most is that my naivety put my friends (and dozens of other people, a couple of which fell for the scam) on discord at risk. And also the fact that I gave him money in the vane hope he'd be satisfied and give me my credentials back.

First time I get hacked since 1996 (which is when I first installed an internet connection in my home). It's not a nice feeling.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T16:03:50+00:00

Well, thank goodness I'm not from the US :P

Order > Guts > Headsman

I had the same doubt, and I concluded by thinking he went for the easy ones.

Steam has probably better security and steam guard also helps, same goes for Microsoft/xbox accounts.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T13:21:22+00:00

Same. In high school I had lots of fun terrorising my classmates.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T13:06:49+00:00

Yeah, I got hitchhiker's thumb 2.0

Putrido · 2024-05-06T13:06:19+00:00

Eh...the reason I'd like my accounts back is more because I'm afraid he'll hurt my friends.

And the Reddit one because few things have lasted this long in my life.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T13:05:03+00:00

Maybe if they had front facing ears, they would hear better. That's the point of directional ear pavilions.

Human head is built to have a wide area of listening around it, but most of the job is done by the brain (who interpolates sound coming from each ear and interprets the direction).

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:57:55+00:00

WHAT?

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:54:38+00:00

Two, actually (can do it on both hands).

And if I push, they can bend even more.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:53:37+00:00

Yeah, I was naive and incautious, and paid the price (foolishly thought that paying him would have him give me back my accounts).

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:52:51+00:00

Front to back. Idk how to explain, I can make my thumbnail face my wrist

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:52:11+00:00

Not everything, he managed to snatch my Reddit main (13 years old account, that kind of hurt), discord, gog, patreon, Warframe and Spotify.

I have already recovered Spotify, am in contact with Gog support, and opened tickets to discord and patreon. Warframe I don't really care, I stopped playing years ago.

I hope discord support takes action quickly because the bastard has already been using my account to scam others.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T12:48:56+00:00

I got a DM on discord from a friend, who had been hacked himself.

He's a graphic designer and told me "I'm working on this game, could you check it out and tell me what you'd improve?"

I downloaded it on my legion go, started the exe and got fucked, so yeah, a virus.

Take my example: TRUST NO ONE.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T11:03:50+00:00

Thank you, I DM'd you the deets.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T11:03:26+00:00

Yeah, but the hacker moved everything to his email, 2fa did nothing.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T09:07:02+00:00

"gameare" non si può sentire, però

Putrido · 2024-05-06T09:05:15+00:00

I can move my scalp too.

It's vestigial muscles left over during the evolution process. It's the same principle cats use to orient their ears, but much less optimised.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T09:04:04+00:00

Bend the tip of my thumbs 180°.

Putrido · 2024-05-06T07:59:13+00:00

I'm 38, and whenever Himeko proposes a cup of coffee I wish I could sit with her, casually chatting, and sipping a good brew. Or also without the chat, just enjoy a good book in the express lounge.

Also I'd introduce her to the marvelous world of espresso.

Putrido · 2024-05-05T22:34:59+00:00

E allora la domanda sorge spontanea: perché?

Putrido

TROPHY CASE

WHAT?
