All my email and ad posting accounts were hacked!

6 posts in this topic

Hello lovely ladies and gentleman of the best state in the nation. Unfortunately, for the very first time, I did something stupid and actually allowed a hacker to gain access to my Gmail account by sending a supposed Google Meet link. I had not ever encountered this type of phishing attempt before and since both of my phones are iPhones, I am not familiar with how Google Meet works. The very legitimate looking login asked for my google account and password and after I put that in, he text and asked for the meet code that was just sent to my email. And that is where I royally f**cked up. If I wasn't touring at the time with many text convos going on at once, I would not have been overwhelmed and in a hurry and would have read the email to know that it was the code required to change my password. At first I thought the damage was minimal because I don't use my Gmail for anything other than MegaP. Unfortunately, I forgot that all of my passwords were saved in my Gmail account. Within minutes, he had taken over my proton mail account and was changing my passwords to all of the posting sites, Afterpay, he even attempted to get into my bank accounts (unsuccessfully thank goodness). Luckily, he must be from out of town and unaware of the popularity of TOB because my account here is one of very few he didn't mess with. I'm trying to regain access to all my accounts or at least notify some of the free, less reputable sites that someone has access and is most likely trying to scam people, but those sites take a very long time, if ever, to get back to you. And recently, I've gotten quite a few texts from clients in different parts of the country letting me know that someone is using my pictures (I forgot that part- he has access to all of my photos with Google Photos...ahhh). So, if anyone comes across any ads on those less reputable site like STG, MP, or LC, or any ads using my pics on those sites, it won't be me for months at least so please repot the ad so that hopefully the amount of damage this person is able to cause by scamming men who know nothig of me can be minimized while I keep trying to contact those sites. Sorry this post is so long. If you made it all the way through thanks so much!

Thanks Love for the support! It's the worst and most time consuming thing I've had to deal with in a long time. It's killing me that it takes so long to get in touch with some of there sites because I'm terrified that my account and pictures and reputation could be being used to scam clients, or worse, post ads for trafficking victims or underage girls!

That's a bummer for you.  It seems even when you're vigilant, the evil doers are coming up with new ways of robbing others.  As Pretty Boy Floyd said, some will rob you with a six gun and others with a fountain pen, er keyboard.

What sucks the most is anybody  can take your pictures and anything else they wish. Emails, profile pages, nothing is completely secure.  I get floored when I see it! Pictures even if there’s a watermarked!  It just sucks that we’re living in such a scammy world anymore. I will never have a Private Delights again. I had several reviews on my former account too. They supposedly gave me a new account and I gave up trying to figure out how to get on there again. It is just not worth the effort of trying. Yuck! ❤️

So sorry this happened to you.  Though I haven't had my email accounts hacked (yet), I've had one of my credit cards hacked 3 times.  I'm grateful it was straightened out but was VERY unnerving.
