(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello

I make lot of deals here, most time I am buying trophies.

I come from germany and a few time ago the language of my paypal account was changed from german to english. I dont know why.

And today I got an email. Somebody transfered all my money of my paypal account to his bank. Its an Interational Bank in USA. I live in germany.

I dont understand why people do that or how this can be happen. I have best virus program and always delete spam or pishing mails.

Sombedy have an advice whtat to do now? here are all my credit carts in this paypal account. he could buy a lot, but he still didnt.

Thanks.

I changed my password and security questions on paypal.

I have AVira Free Antivirus. Is that enough?

Maybe it was a mail. I dont know. u think the hacker have still success to my computer?


If you can get a professional to look at it then that would be a better way to go. Whomever stole your info may still have it but just in case he doesn't, change yout password on everything. I had my desktop for 2 years now and I haven't installed any virus protection software. Just be careful.

meine fresse wie blöd muss man sein um sich die trophys hier zu kaufen
mit heutigen programmen kannst du dir haufen trophys selber leicht erspielen und spiele kannst du dir in vdeotheken ausleihen für paar euros.
hoffe trotzdem das alles gut läuft bei dir gruss

junge das hier ist nicht thema, ich habe das programm wovon du sprichst auch und selber schon vür ca. 4000 Euro verkauft und jetzt kauf ich nur die, die ich selber nicht hacken kann um meine spiele auf 100% zu bringen. hab immer noch weit über 3000 gewinn also halte dich nächstes mal bitte an das thema des threads.

Es hat vermutlich auch gar nichts mit hier zu tun.

if you use the same password for psn and paypal it's possible whoever you bought the trophies from stole your money.

i understand you were hacked and whatever, and i feel bad. try phoning you bank and ask them about paypal transactions from that account

however this is the wrong section.

that guy told me it can happens if u dont update ur JAVA. and thats true. I didnt. I get the message for a new update for JAVA since 3 weeks but I never did it yet.

So I think that has nothing to do with trophy buying on NGU.
I deleted that file now and changed my passwords. But I dont know if its enough.

I got the money back. I phoned with Paypal and got it back but I think there is still a danger.

AS a rule.
1) Always use a different email a/c and password for any financial stuff.
2) Any weird stuff you see regarding banks. Always play safe. Call the customer service and find out whats going on.
3) Contact paypal to dispute the transaction. If they see its a suspicious activity they will take care of it.
4) Contact bank to dispute the transaction there as well.
5) If you want to use free version of Antivirus. Use AVG Free edition. Its one of the best antivirus out there which is still free. Else get norton 360. You can usually get it pretty free after deals/rebates.


Best of luck. Hope you get your money back.
