My ATS Account just got hacked

I just checked my email and I have an invitation to join the discord. Could this have been an attempt to get more members to go over there? Some inactive mod that still has mod access doing some gorilla advertising?

Just speculating here.

Some think its a not a discord invite but a phising email, so I'd recommend not opening it!!

PM for you

I wouldn't send or use the private message service either?!?! Use DI for that for now, just incase...

a reply to: CarlLaFong

Oh. EO sent me a pm saying my Sig was removed.

Have I got a hammer and sickle? Can't see avatars.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

apparently just the si, cause you still got the hammer and sickle.

he was deleting them last night

a reply to: Kurokage

Oh no.

Some folk on here think I'm a commie, now they'll have a field day!

I got that same PM too.
Hmmmm....

I have examined it for false.links. I have encountered that before. That is when the link shows one address but goes to another one when clicked. None found.

I am not going to click it or reply.

If ats goes down, I will be on DI.

a reply to: Kurokage

so far it's been fine, it the sites internal PM. used it several times last night. and if the can get in and change stuff in you account they already have it. so it really doesn't change anything by using it.

i kept them at bay changing mine back last night till they stopped.

Ah ok, was cautioning members as it better to be safe than sorry.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

That was an automated message that came from a mod action. There was a single mod online at the time trying to delete the edits the troll was making.

I got several of them myself. Basically the way to delete the signature banners was to 'delete' them entirely as a mod action, same way we get posts removed as off-topic or whatever.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

Might be better to delete the 'Hammer and Sickle' and just leave it blank for now?

a reply to: Kurokage

Having seen that, that particular email sender is now blocked.

a reply to: BernnieJGato

Thanks. Can't seem to delete it!

a reply to: BernnieJGato

I was thinking more of a hacker sending a PM pretending to be another member and having a spurious link in it or something, so best not to trust anything on here?

Don't nobody touch nuthin.....
