Account hacked

[Lover]

Hi Wordhunter,
bad thing that happened to you. Maybe your Avatar has its own life? Sorry, not really a good joke. You can contact the support, maybe its faster then this forum. But its very good you posted it, so everyone is remembered to be careful with private things. We all should change our password each month or so.

Lover

my thoughts are with you honey,

I was hacked too … but I hope that I didnt loose my reputation. Nobody told me about me behaving rude. Yesterday I had a look at my A$s and found out that I made a present of 2000 A$ without knowing about it … please check your account once again.
And for the rest of this community … take care of your computer system referring to spyware systems or viruses … and choose a smart password.

good luck for all of you

The security is one thing that has been bothered me. The password is visible in plain text as you log in, not the typical *******. When you go to CCBill to order things the password is there too, meaning AChat actually share your password in plain text with third party companies. I find that quite disturbing. Luckily I cose a password I don't use anywhere else, but if it was one of my standard passwords I'd be quite upset about it.

I think AChat needs to look over the security and privacy arrangements of their software. Things need to be encrypted, having things stored in plain text is not an acceptable option. As the community grows I think this will become even more important.

I hacked on last Saturday too. I dont think this has to do with each member's computer.

Tom, do u use md5 when storing passwords in db?
