I guess a week or so ago we heard the news on the 5 million accounts being hacked and I was one of the lucky users.
I got three e mails this morning to the effect of me changing my paypal password, me changing my paypal security questions, and me transferring funds from my bank account into my paypal account.
They did two transactions. One for 500 and one for 1000. Be on alert that this is happening.
In all honesty, my passwords may have been the same. I had changed my gmail password but it may very well have been the same as paypal. I am not sure. I have not used my paypal in years....
Now they are both changed. My bank has been contacted, paypal has been contacted, etc.
No I didn't. I haven't been on paypal in I don't know how long. I used it once several years ago to buy something from someone on ETSY who only accepted pp for payment.
Maybe I posted the wrong link, I don't know. I do know that I had issues also with my facebook and gmail and got an e mail from ETSY on 9-11 in re to this gmail issue.
Yes, that's the one I was referring to. A quote from the article "Most of the passwords were more than three years old".
It was not a recent breach of current data. I unlinked my bank account from paypal over a year ago and stopped using it.
No, this has just happened. I actually changed my password recently, as well, when I saw that someone had accessed my e mail address from a location that was nowhere I have ever been.

Yes the data was just stolen, but it was OLD data, not current data.
