Guys it looks like malicious actors have been into the forex-station website and we have to change our passwords.
NEVER DOWNLOAD OR OPEN FILES YOU ARE UNSURE OF - I know the pursuit of money warps brains and this is no different but you have got to be careful downloading and opening stuff.
The rar file didn't look legitimate so I didn't open/run those files.
1. Please scan your pc using a FULL virus scan - AVG/AVAST/Microsoft Defender & also run MalwareBytes once over.
2. If your email address and password is used for any other service online go and change that password immediately.
Good practices
a) Never download or open/run anything you are unsure of - check twice.
b) Use a different password for each service you use - use a password manager.
Yes mate this is it, I've just gone into the logs and can see some of you guys have logged in from IP addresses that you haven't used in the past. These guys will use password guessing scripts and get access to your accounts (especially if you use an easy to guess password) they'll get in and start posting rubbish.
And it looks like they've gone into
Woodyz and
Juantrader's account, guessed their password and uploaded shit files everywhere in .rar format at 3:30am Australian time.
Everything will need to be fixed up today, and the site will be offline (here and there) while our host works with us to restore the site.
What a fucking mess.
