    Has anyone ever had their account info stolen?
    My Poker Stars account had over $1k in deposits to it. At one point the balance was up $300, I changed the password, emailed customer service and have not received a response. I received an email today saying thank you for the $400 deposit, which I did not do. I go home on my lunch break and log onto PS and the balance was at like $550 or so. I again changed the password, ran a virus scan and emailed customer service. I have not received a single response from them and just want to know what I am up against!

    FUKK ME!!!

        There was a report on CBS "60 minutes" last night about teenager Russian hackers targeting US turkeys.

              Guys just wanted to give an update of what had happened and hopefully warning to people so it doesnt happen to you.

              I had the IT guy from work check out my laptop and apparently I had a virus but isnt actually a virus it is a bot. It monitors what you do and if the person who sent it to you chooses to, can download the information using your IP address. Once this happens they can do whatever they want from your computer using your internet connection! I have Verizon Fios wireless so I guess its always connected...

              My Poker Stars account had a bunch of e-checks deposited to it and the money was lost, and my checking account was used to sign up at a porn site over 100 times at $19.95 a pop!

              There is a program that catches is "malware bytes" I believe it is called... Just an FYI! This has been unreal!!
