I logged onto my gmail account yesterday to check my mail only to find that someone in Spain had gotten into my account.
Google notified me that the recent IP address was not from my computer, so I checked to find the location in Spain.
I use this account for employment resumes that I send so nothing much resides on it.
I've already changed my password.
So, how does someone get my user name AND password?
 
Starbucks.
You ever use your laptop at an open WiFi environment?
Look around.
Some moron there is ONLY there to hack your data as you feed it in.


Or, they're just lucky on the password.
 
Good suggestion, but my laptop never leaves my desk. And my wifi is secure.
 
I can solve the problem from here, I just need your password , pin number, and your mothers maiden name. Cordially yours, --Sergei
 
President Skroob: Did it work? Where's the king?
Dark Helmet: It worked, sir. We have the combination.
President Skroob: Great. Now we can take every last breath of fresh air from Planet Druidia. What's the combination?
Colonel Sandurz: 1-2-3-4-5
President Skroob: 1-2-3-4-5?
Colonel Sandurz: Yes!
President Skroob: That's amazing. I've got the same combination on my luggage.
 
My password is not that easy ben :nonono:

I totally understand Anthony. After all, that is a lot of $ to pass up... did you say they were giving you 30% or taking 100% of yours?
