Make sure you check your passwords shared with old AGF

Someone from San Jose just accessed my defunct Hulu account which ashamed to say shared my AGF password and email. Fairly certain that email/password combo had not been compromised as I had changed my email and password after my Yahoo email had been compromised years ago and I made the mistake of reusing passwords back then.

They use an SQL database as well and PWs are encrypted in the DB but Email Addies ARE NOT.

so would someone be able to use a known plaintext attack to try to decrypt the passwords?

something like this page alludes to?

I used to use the same passwords on forums and a Walmart account. Someone got ahold of it and bought some digital downloads, bank reimbursed me. I don't remember storing my credit card number on Walmart but it probably did by default. I know my password was stolen from a forum just don't know which one.

Still getting weird spam on the email address I used in private PMs. I use spamcop and the last 20 all have been from the same Google server.

My Hulu account got hacked this week as well, someone from Germany. My Spotify got hacked yesterday by someone in NYC. Shady shit going on here...

You are friends with Megan Markle?

Yeah but we don't talk guitars. Mum is from England, haven't heard her growing up stories about lights out raids during WW2 in a while. Covid keeps me from visiting.

Interestingly, someone tried to access a Nintendo account I didn't even know I had. I don't know if the PW was the same as what I used on the .com site but it's quite possible. I was able to change my Nintendo PW and then I deleted my account.

This whole thing is sure looking a little fishy. How many members have had some kind of hack, etc. now?

Setup two-factor authentication every account that you can. It isn't bullet proof, but will at least make it much harder to gain access to your accounts.

luckily it was a defunct account never used for anything but a free trial. but it did have my full name associated with it. I have updated my password, removed my namr, and moved the account email to a burner account not associated with anything but being a burner.

Thanks for this -- just changed my PW here and at the old AGF. Just in case.

Every so often I get the old "I know you were watching pron and I videotaped you and if you don't send me Bitcoin I will send the video of you wanking off to all your contacts."

I thought about sending a replay along the lines of "ooohhhh, what turn on that would be - go ahead". But I just block them instead.

I never reply but [mention]Raindog[/mention] has before.

Ya password change is a good idea. Fortunately no spam has shown up yet. It seems after checking AGF.com by browser that they have let security certificates lapse. So I strengthened my password.

I’m lucky that mine was unique to AGF. No spam yet

I usually respond with ""I've got vids of you f**ing your (father/mother/sister) so I guess we're even"...

I usually reply, asking for copies of the video to share with family and friends. I actually had one reply back a week after the first message, giving me a second warning and talking more sternly. The little bastard even called me F***face. What a wonderful world!

I use this for passwords. And change them as often as I can remember—which is not as often as I should. But they are all very secure and unique.
