Comments on: Skype Account Hacked – Word Of Warning! http://www.imnicamarketing.com/2008/06/skype-account-hacked-word-of-warning/ Internet Marketing Solved Fri, 15 Jan 2010 15:31:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Milko http://www.imnicamarketing.com/2008/06/skype-account-hacked-word-of-warning/#comment-372 Milko Wed, 12 Nov 2008 19:36:47 +0000 http://www.imnicamarketing.com/?p=74#comment-372 i will speak by my experience: how can someone hack my password and enter my Skype? if i didn't give him or tell him or he use the history of my computer my saved passwords of e-mails etc...etc... Skype is secure and every time you give "sign out" he don't keep saved passwords except the username that user been logged. Other situation for example let say you registered Skype with one password, you registered e-mail with different password, and if the hacker knows that password on Skype and he can change it and used it by himself, but if the real user simply if not allowed to enter in his Skype, will loking for reseting the password on his mail or simply will change it on skype website. So simple couldn't be easy :) so my advice for every user -Sign In, users with valid e-mail and use different password for Skype than your e-mail password you are 100% protected...

I have written skype 6 times in the last 4 days and no one is responding. This hijacker also hijacked my primary email, changed the passwords, open my emails, got bank information and more. Within 24 hours Microsoft reset the passwords and got me back into my email, while Skype does nothing, not even a confirmation my request was heard. The response from Skype is very typical of all EBAY companies. Ebay and it's sister companies don't give a ..... about cutomers and this includes Paypal. Rather than helping victoms they treat you like a criminal. Now I have to deal with all my customers that have been trying to reach me through skype and cannot get through. This is a nightmare. I removed the hacked bank account and credit card from my paypal account to keep the hijacker from accessing the account and Paypal now tries to threaten me with account closure because I won't put another bank and credit card on file LOL how sad Ebay companies are. Same thing happen to me Skype account hacked

I'm logged into Skype using my wife's account currently, and it shows that "I" am online. At least I have the satisfaction of calling the hacker every 20 second, so my account isn't all the useful to him at present. No word back from Skype yet. I hope I get my account restored shortly.
