Hacked paypal account
Hi guys,
I noticed some *Removed* had sent 2 transactions from my paypal account earlier to an unregistered Hotmail address. I have managed to cancel them and change my password, but it makes me wonder how people can retrieve this info? What software can I get to search my computer for spyware/keyloggers etc? I have full up to date AVG. Thanks Steve |

You probably use your paypal password for something other than paypal?

I change my paypal password every month, and I change my email password that is linked in with paypal, once every 2 months. (I use paypal every day though. Kinda a necessity.) Use non-English words, make your own up, whatever, just write it down and put it somewhere, less likely to get burgled for your paypal password than for it to be stolen online. |
