Hack Attempt

Post Fri Jul 31, 2015 6:53 pm


Last week I sent a e-mail to Pbase about 9 attempts to hack into my Pbase account on July 23rd/July 24th...I never received a response so I thought I'd try contacting someone through here. Luckily they were unsuccessful but I'd sure like to get their IP address. This is the form I received from Pbase showing someone was attempting to get my password info...On the form I obviously xx'ed out my account and password...

To

gary_holt@yahoo.com

This is an automated password reminder for the account powerandbeauty at pbase.com.

If you did not request this information, do not worry; someone else probably forgot their password and entered the wrong email address.
Here is your account information:

email: gary_holt@yahoo.com
username: xxxxxxx
password: xxxxxx

Your password is case sensitive, so enter it exactly as shown.

After logging in, it would be wise to update your password on the account settings page.

Thanks,

Hi Gary,
If you install [url]statcounter.com[/url] you get the IP address of all visitors. A few years back some idiot was leaving very offensive messages on my site probably thinking he could not be traced, but i got his location and IP address.
Best,
Walter
