Noxx Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 So the day Free Trade came out a friend of mine donated some money to me. I told another friend of mine about thins (he was really just some random guy i met through my cousin [on RS] but at this stage i had known him for about a year. For now lets just refer to him as X). X asked me if i would give him some of the money i just got, and i refused. I had my own goals at that time and had no intention of parting with the wealth i had just gained. X didn't like this at all. So a week or two after the release of FT X came online one day and told me how he figured out one of his friends' passwords and this friend has a lot of money but no bank pin. I knew what he was going to ask, and before he could get any further i stopped him and told him that i had no interrest in "hacking" anyone as i would not like to put my account at any risk. Anyway a few days later i found out that X had gone ahead and hacked the account anyway, but he got scammed by the person who had helped him and now X is still where he was before the attempted hack. I deleted X from my friends list because i have no intention of being "friends" with a dishonest player. When i went onto Facebook just now my cousin had sent me an Inbox message saying that X is trying to recover my account. The reasons are obvious. He's butthurt that i managed take the wealth i had and turn it into something bigger. I have recoveries and a bank pin. There are no virusses onmy laptop as i scanned it just a few minutes ago (routine weekly scan). But i fear that he might still be able to guess my recoveries as he knew quite a bit about me after just talking to him for a week or so after we met. I am about to change my recoveries now, to random jabber. I'll write them on a piece of paper and just put them somewhere safe. Is there anything else i can do to insure that my account is safe from any harm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Not much else you can do really. Just make sure bank pin is set to 7 day removal not 3 day and bank anything of value before you log out.

ReapMe Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 It's still possible to recover the account if he has old recoveries so you're not completely safe just by changing them. What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noxx Posted April 12, 2011 Author Share Posted April 12, 2011 It's still possible to recover the account if he has old recoveries so you're not completely safe just by changing them.I doubt he has the old ones as they too were pretty random, but they did however have some relation to my life.

Guy Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Changing recoveries to random strings of letters/numbers/symbols with no real links to the question would be the best. Also the 7 day PIN thing. Log into your account (as I assume you do) at least once a week just to double check. He'll give up eventually.
