    Had my account hacked


    Hi,


    I had my account hacked tonight and because I had my card details on my account, they managed to buy Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Pro for workstations over £500.


    I had notification on my watch notify me, as soon as I got them I logged in and changed my password, while I was doing it they were trying to buy a samsung phone and microsoft credit, manage to stop those by changing my password. Contacted american express (My payment method) tried ringing microsoft but the number on the screen said when I rang the offices were shut.


    Does anybody know what I've got to do to try and claim my money back?

    :)

    77000 Steam accounts hacked every month

    Ironically I've had the same crappy password since I made my Steam when HL2 came out and never been hacked, but I've had my Origin account jacked twice with a much more complicated password. 2 step on Origin fixed this problem, but just thought it was kind of funny. I went with 2 step on Steam to be safe too.

  3. Steam Account Hacked

    Again...

    I sent a ticket I just hope they resolve it soon cause I really want to play Portal 2.

    And I don't want him getting me banned.

    But the scary thing is they hacked my Email account too!

    I've changed the password but is that enough?

    I scanned my Computer using malware and it got rid of 9 Nasty objects! Its been months since I did a scan and now I'm thinking this is how they got me.

    Is a password change and malware scan removal enough to secure me? I made the password much harder than before.

    Thinking about doing a reformat as well. Suggestions? Should I leave the hacked email account and make a new one?

    Remove account


    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
      Code:
      net user test /del
