Got hacked by a low life
6 months ago
A low Life hacker pretending to be one of my friends of course tricked me into opening a file that they had claimed was a game, I'm now recovering things under new passwords not saved digitally, but to a more controlled spot so passwords will never be hacked again. Not scared about the threat of my life being sent to telegram or the dark web, I already locked down my bank accounts and nothing was reported amiss, though I would so love to get my hands on the cowardly hacker so I could peal him like a grape slowly before feeding him to the mother loving pigs. live and learn, already learned a lesson from an "artist" that hosed me, now I've learned not to put too much faith in humanity and won't be fooled again like that. I won't be clicking links from friends, this day on. as Im also aggressively scouring my system of the threat, oh well it's just a laptop, might just wipe and refresh. my desktop is safe, Im going to be putting a new browser on it and abandon firefox. My desktop was in a diagnostic cycle not even logged in, and I disconnected the wifi antenna so safe for now.

Yea sadly the free game scam is very common see it on discord alot snd have a few friends who I know are not into game development be like "hey can you do me a favour and test this game I been working on for months" I just make them go around in circles and never accept till they got bored. The other one is the steam scam I accidentally reported you

yeah, it always sucks when someone violates your personal space in such a way, so many more things to go through, and im just shaking my head, I don't even know the reason behind it. sucks that they were skin walking a friend's account. Now I have my laptop protected right now and hopefully Im going to get through this.
