Have you been hacked since the implementation of PIC?
#31
Wasn't getting hacked via email the most common method prior to the wave of the last 3 months?
I wouldn't rule out the possibility that no keylogger, sharing or physhing was involved. I have seen posts that hint that the registered email can be retrieved without knowing password first.
A lot people seem to cling to the belief that keyloggers are to blame for most hackings, but keyloggers really don't seem to be that common. I guess they want to believe in keyloggers or physhing rather that some unknown mysterious method, since only dummies would fall for such tricks, so therefore they feel safe.

Also: LOL at the physhing Google ad on the main page.
