I am being hacked

September 6th, 2016 at 02:22 pm

So I don't know what is going on the past few weeks, but there have been several hack attempts to my various social media and email accounts online. The sources of these attacks are also from various countries from Phillipines to Argentina... though of course, countries of origin could easily be spoofed.

These are accounts that I rarely use, so I am not terribly concerned. What DOES concern me is that these are accounts with separate IDs that have no connection with one another. So how am I getting attacks from them as a group?

Anyways, off I go to lock these down, and hopefully it's just a random bot attack, and not someone who is interested in me somehow.

    That is creepy. Hope you can figure out why you were targeted.

    Could someone have hacked your email account and found passwords to other places in old emails? Hope you've changed all your passwords by now....be careful.

    Patient, it's possible that could be it. Hard to keep track of these things, especially when I rarely use it.

    Anyways, thanks gang. We'll see I guess.

    Oh yes, I've already updated it, and even added two factor authentication. Not like I hardly receive anything of importance in there anyway, but just the thought of being hacked bothers me.
