[QUOTE="R2D2, post: 1019932, member: 64945"] I am still experiencing the chills and it's not entirely due to the weather. :D But seriously, this is my bad. I curse LP and their management for their lapses but admit I should've been wary and cautious after reading about repeated attacks on LP over the years. One of them was bound to succeed and it did...in Aug '22. What was disclosed in Aug was just the trailer, the movie was yet to begin. I hate to think how many accounts..like this Youtuber's, have been compromised. And he is not a noob! Obviously the hackers tried their luck with a well known personality giving weight to the theory they'll attack high value targets first. Luckily I am just small fry. Phew! What unfolds in the next few months remains to be seen. It won't be good. Just batten down the hatches (2FA, passwords, recovery codes) as the full force of the hacker storm approaches. PS - This may or may not be a coincidence. I have seen a massive increase in the number of spam mails at my Gmail account. [/QUOTE]
