This is BullSh*t!!!!! |

This is BullSh*t!!!!!

Published August 22nd, 2008 in Earnings, Etcetera, PayPal, Photo Hunt, Weekend Snapshot.

I didn’t even touch my PC the whole day but just half an hour ago, while I was checking my emails, I got these mails in my inbox:

And guess what, there were 2 more mails that said I have paid and done some transactions today through PayPal, and these are the payment details:

My heart went jumping, so I tried logging in to my PayPal Account to see these transactions but I couldn’t even log on to it.

Then this email followed:

Then, I made an online banking and found out that an amount of Php3976.97 has already been taken from my EON Debit Card.

This is really frustrating! I immediately sent my brother out to withdraw the remaining amount from my account. I was actually planning to withdraw it on Monday, as I would need it when I go to Manila, I wish I have taken it today. *sigh* I have already emailed service@intl.paypal.com but it is asking me to:

Thank you for contacting PayPal Customer Service.

But the thing is I couldn’t log on to my account and right now I don’t wanna create any account with PayPal yet, until unless this problem is resolved. I have worked for it, and that amount was just part of my 2 weeks blog earnings, and this is what is going to happen? This is all bullsh*t!!!!! By the way the email add of the “whoever” did it was miroslav.kaduch@seznam.cz. So, to my fellow bloggers, please beware!!!!

Hi Feng! Nanlalambot nga ako till now…. Pinaghirapan ko yun tapos mauuwi sa wala. :(
5 Mitch Aug 22nd, 2008 at 9:23 pm

Hi Mommy R! Di lang kamo yung amount na nawala, pati EON account ko disclosed na sa taong gumawa nun haaaaay! I really don’t know what to do, laking abala nito sa akin.

Kelangan ko i-edit lahat ngayon ng account ko sa paid programs otherwise di nila mapapadala bayad sa akin.

Hay! Laking abala nga kasi dami ko i-update.

Buti nga kamo tinirhan pa ako ng kalahati. Waaaaah! 2 weeks kong pinaghirapan yung 9k na yun. :( Tas nawala lang halos kalahati ng ganun. :(
11 cielo Aug 23rd, 2008 at 1:28 am

sis i feel bad for you…this is really frightening lalo na sa katulad nating who is doing earn online tapos pinalalaki pa natin sa paypal before withdrawal.

i hope this will be resolved soon, pinaghirapan yun..
12 zriz Aug 23rd, 2008 at 6:19 am

Ay nako sis! Walang hiya talaga ang taong yon! This is not right at all. Tawagin mo nalang yung Paypal para they will address your case ASAP kasi nadamay na yong EON account mo!

I have to check mine din. Medyo malaki na yung naipon ko sa PP account ko. Ay nako!

I hope ma resolve ito sis. Sayang naman yong pera nga naipon mo for two weeks.

Hi mitch!

this is sad news indeed. if you did not open your account anywhere other than your own pc, then i suggest you go over your security settings, po, to prevent this from happening again. :(

im sorry for what happened…

… im going to do some research on this.

Nakakalungkot naman tong news mo, sis. Wala ka bang pinaghihinalaan kung sino gumawa nito? Magpapalit na nga ako ng password dahil sa balitang to. Sana mahabol mo pa kung sino man ang gumawa nito.

Hi Cielo! Naireport ko na sa PayPal, I had to create another account para makapagreport kasi yung dati closed na daw, maybe the one who did it closed my account. Kaya di ko din maverify yung transaction ID, haaay!

I hope talaga maresolved sya agad.
19 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:35 pm

Hi Z! Walanghiya talaga yun pero di pa din sagad kasi di nya sinimot ang laman hehe! Hay naku! Bless that person heart, mawawala din sa kanya yun. I believe in karma, kahit malaki o maliit na panloloko, may katapat!
20 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:37 pm

Very sad talaga Lurch! Kung bakit naman kasi dati rati pag pumasok na sa EON account ko yung pera, winiwithdraw ko kaagad, kaso this time nga I thought of saving it waaaaaaaah!

From now on di na ako maglink ng card doon, pagtyagaan ko na ang Xoom, tutal dati ko pa naman ginagamit yun, sayang lang nga ang charges.
21 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:39 pm

Hi Kat! Yun kasi di ba ang nakalink na debit card. Galing nga nya samantalang di ba di naman exposed lahat ng digit numbers sa PayPal. Buset talaga hmp!
22 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:40 pm

Hi Arlene! Nung wala pa akong EON, Xoom din ang gamit ko lagi. Ganun na lang ulit gagawin ko mula ngayon.

Winithdraw ko na din remaining balance sa EON ko baka makuha pa.
23 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:41 pm

Hi Eds! Kakatakot talaga, buti na lang yung EON ko ang funds na pumapasok talaga dun eh yung galing lang sa PayPal. Buti na lang iba na ang account na gamit ko na remittance from my husband, otherwise patay talaga! Dati dun din eh. Waaaaaaaaah!
24 Mitch Aug 23rd, 2008 at 5:43 pm

Hi Paula! It’s so sad talaga…

Hacker talaga sya sis. Kasi ako lang ang nakakaalam ng log on details ko sa PayPal at EON, even my husband can’t access to it.

Saka dito lang naman ako nagbubukas ng accounts ko sa bahay, eh wala namang ibang gagawa nun hay!
25 Ada Aug 23rd, 2008 at 6:32 pm

This is frustrating. I thought all blogger are aware of how to protect their paypal. You should be aware of it at first, like me a blogger, I often reads certain post/blog like this, that their paypal has been hacked.

Actually there’s no thing about being hacked. Possibly that you have clicked an email fraud that you thought it’s from paypal and that you have log in it.

Make sure that the paypal email is addressing your name, like this:

Dear Mich (Your last name):

And make sure that your are logging in at paypal.com by checking the address bar.

It could also be possible that your password in paypal is similar in your other accounts passwords such as forums, and other websites that needs log-in information.

This is a lesson to all of us.

Regards,
Ada

Mitch, hubby said clean your computer first before doing anything, before logging to your accounts.

Reformat mo daw to get rid of malwares, just to be sure.

You might have been a victim of phishing.

HI Mitch!

Nangyari din to sa kin! I couldn’t really understand how it happened or how it really works. Pero ang nakakainis pa, hindi lang paypal ko. pati yung isa kong blog. As in!! dinelete lahat ng entries ko. and added some bastos things!! grabe! super nanghina din ako when that happened. and inis din!
i called paypal to undo it all, sobrang hassle! kasi limited access yung account, they transferred naman the funds back…pero super kakainis!! i changed all my passwords etc.

i hope you get to sort them out soon… Hay…

31 Nita Aug 25th, 2008 at 2:52 am

Na hacked ang PayPal account mo. Siguro may na click kang link at yung link na yun don nila nakuha ang info mo. Minsan din kasi, ang ginawa ng hackers, they’ll send out emails, kunwari galing daw sa PayPal with the subject “Your PayPal account is limited” then they want you to update your information, which they also provide a link para daw ma update mo. Beware! That link is not really from PayPal.com.

Tip: Do not click the link (unless kilala mo yung nagpadala). You should copy and paste the link to your browser to see if galing ba talaga sa PayPal. I guess may instructions ako sa Phpdigiscrapper forum regarding this matter. Be careful. Dami na loko loko ngayon sa internet!

OMG! sana ma settle mo nga to mitch. Mejo mabagal ang paypal sa email talga. Once na hold naman money ko sa knila ng 2 weeks.

nakakatakot , ksi prone na sya sa hacking diba? cguro dapat withdraw na nga natin ang money pag may earnings tyo. i also change passwords pala once in a while.

Nakakatakot naman yan. Dapat maging maingat lagi. Dapat mahahaba yung password mo at kung magbukas ka ng Paypal mo dapat walang ibang nakabukas na window or walang ibang tab na bukas. Pero mahirap talaga magbantay, magagaling na talaga ngayon ang mga hackers.

Dapat rin iba-iba ang password mo sa iba’t-ibang account.

I really have no idea what went wrong but this is a lesson learned, next time magiging aware na ako sa mga ganyan.

Thanks sa lahat ng tips and advice!
37 Blogfixes.com Aug 27th, 2008 at 12:05 pm

Possible reasons for these are:

1. Phishing Sites.
2. Weak Passwrod.
3. A trusted Friend may have hacked your account.
4. KeyLoggers on some internet cafes.
– and many more…

I am sorry this happened to you.. I hope it gets resolved..

sincerely,

Mitch, naku naman, di ko pa natatapos yung post mo, palagay ko biktima ka nga ng phishing. Actually ilang beses na kong nag post about it kasi dami kong nakukuha sa email ko lalo na sa paypal…syempre di ko pinapatos. Kaya di ka dapat click basta from your email…o kaya check mo status bar kung saan talaga naka-link yung click mo. uy mabilis na xoom ngayon, within 2 minutes yata nakuha ko recent withdraw ko eh.

ingat ka lagi ha.

Anyway, how are you?
44 Mitch Sep 1st, 2008 at 9:08 pm

Hi Ate Cecile! Long time no hear… wala akong matandaang naclicked ko from my email kasi di din ako basta basta nagkiclick ng ganun. I really don’t know what happened.

Baka i-xoom ko muna….

Ingat din po!
45 Mich Sep 16th, 2008 at 8:23 am

hi sis, i hope naayos na ‘tong problem na ‘to. buti nakita mo kung ano ung email address na naghacked. papano ba nangyari? nakatanggap ka lang ng email tapos pag-check mo sa paypal ganon na? may iba pa bang nakakaalam ng password mo?

goodluck sis and hope maayos na nga ito…
46 jennyL Sep 16th, 2008 at 12:04 pm

Hi Mich! Basta na lang may nareceived akong email na parang notification that transactions have been made through my PayPal. Tapos kinabahan ako so I checked my EON Account online, ayun wala na yung P4k ko. :(

I really don’t know how it happened coz no one knew my password not even my husband. Sabi ng iba victim ako ng phishing, baka daw may naclick kong link sa spam emails. Pero I’m sure na wala talaga…
48 Mitch Sep 16th, 2008 at 5:39 pm

Hi Jenny! Narefund ba ng PayPal kay ni Nita yung nawala sa kanya?

Nakakasama talaga ng loob kasi pinaghirapan mo yun tas bigla ganun. I usually withdraw my money from my EON kung bakit that day I did not, yung remittance lang na padala ng asawa ko ang kinuha ko. Kainis talaga pag naaalala ko hehe!
