All the replies make good points. Question - how do we know which is the real Mysteriousflyer, or if there are even 2? The latest one hasn't responded how or w/ what he was accessing his Gmail acct. Sometimes from public wifi? There are too many unanswered questions & variables. Has he checked for key loggers or trojans, that could capture his PW? One simple way hackers get a PW.scarp:On 2/18/2013 9:01 PM, Mysterious Flyer wrote:Ummmmm. I am the REAL mysteriousflyer@xxxxxxxxxx I guess it's super-duper easy for a person's user names and passwords to get hacked when accessing e-mail over Tor. I also noticed that someone has been reading my gmails (since they were marked as read), so I changed my password over there and will never access gmail through Tor again. Someone ALSO made a copy of my debit card and tried to use it in another state, but that may be coincidence. Does anyone have any knowledge as to HOW a hacker may get this information? Is it through an exit server? I certainly never made any online purchases through Tor.Or he just ignored the SSL warning like so many people do.
He didn't answer if always used encrypted connection to Gmail, or - as mentioned - if ever got a security warning & ignored it. Don't know about Gmail, but some providers still allow clients to use unencrypted connections. If uses a laptop / phone, has he ever left it alone, while logged into Gmail, or PWs are unsecured? If uses an email client, are stored login / SMTP PWs secured w/ reasonably strong PW, or are they stored unprotected? Many other factors.
