Attention king and moderators

[crondanet5]

There is a new disruptor in this web site that in a quick review of today's IFTs affects evilanne and crondanet5 but there may be many others. With a changed symbol for the letter o in crondanet5 someone has stolen my identity and although they started on July 22 they have a 9.28% ytd return. I tried privatizing my Fantasy Game account but they still have all my statistics. No doubt the same is true of evilanne's Fantasy Game account. Now I am out of IFTs for July, but because this perpetrator started July 22 they have 2 IFTs for July and are taking my account to the C Fund. I believe this is disastrous for my account. Likewise evilanne's account is going C Fund tonight. Can anything be done? Do we have some savvy IT folks with suggestions?

I hope the continued harassment of long time contributors does not discourage them from posting...
I am worried contributors may begin to think the headache is not worth helping us newbies out...

Curious. I went from +7% to -28% over the weekend for my performance to date. I don't see any change in my allocation, but the performance tanked. It looks like the C fund took a big hit!

The programming glitch with the C-fund is just that, a programming glitch. However, Cro and Evilanne BOTH getting "hacked" like that at the same time may be indication of a bigger issue. There are plenty of other user names containing an "O" but I didn't see any other account takeover's.

Rather weird.

We are looking into it.

Update: Both hacked accounts have been banned from the site.

[Tomanyiron]

Ski, they did it again, with mine.

[crondanet5]

Everyone should be paying attention to this situation. If someone can do it on this site how safe are your personal computer activities?


Moderators please note the crondanet5 and evilanne IFTs still appear in Pending Allocations.

[skiehawk11]

Right now the only way I can help is ban as the accounts are made. King will have to take more drastic measures.

[crondanet5]

Tommie looks like you are going C Fund tonight.

[evilanne]

Well they say "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" but I imagine they are in the same group of disruptors. The accounts appear to be totally separate but the historical returns for Tomany & Cron appear to be automatically being associated with the new accounts but that may change after their IFTs kick in. Seems like whoever they are, they really need some real work to keep them busy rather than messing with a internet chat room.

What is with the major move to C today?

[rmcdeepsea]

I don't think people are making that move intentionally. It seems to be part of the hack. Really unfortunate someone is taking the the time to mess with a site that is only here as informational. Not even any real money changes hands. What a loser. Doesn't really suprise me though. Hopefully it can get resolved those individuals can get their accounts corrected. I know it's frustrating when you check in on a helpful site like this everyday like I do and someone decides to mess with it for no real personal gain. Thanks to the admins for putting up with all the bullvvvv.

[evilanne]

Seems like Crondanet5 has another imitator: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14628

[bamablue]

This hijacking may be the explanation for the rash of negative feedback and disgusting personal messages. Looks like the maleficent hackers have successfully gotten people to start throwing negative feedback in retaliation for negative points or flamethrower PMs

[maxbobcat]

lol. what pathetic losers would try to hack a fantasy tsp site.
