Account Locked?
 
I just received this e-mail message from this forum.

I haven't visited since 12:45 PM PST until now.

Anyone else?

Same. 3 attacks in the past 20 minutes from IPs

189.115.161.35

209.208.78.113

Ncturnal 12-09-2012 03:54 AM

Just got a ton of those as well. I think there are bots running and trying easy passwords, or the username as the password. It reported 3 different IP addresses.

200.84.91.249
202.4.114.18
200.54.78.66

Footman 12-09-2012 03:59 AM

Hacking attempts for my account, too.

Indonesia - PT Telkom: 118.97.15.226
China - WASU TV & Communication Holding: 218.108.85.59

Strange. Not the usual Chinanet Fuijan that's been the bane of my existence lately.

kiril_cvetkov 12-09-2012 04:08 AM

Same here... I've got a lot of attacks on my account in the past few hours

poolking 12-09-2012 09:22 AM

mmfgamer5 12-09-2012 09:27 AM

Same here.

118.97.147.26 (Indonesia)
81.1.237.210 (Russian Federation)
114.35.167.38 (Taiwan)

BirdOPrey5 12-09-2012 09:58 AM

This happens every so often, the site gets targeted by hackers looking for "weak" passwords...

No doubt they are trying the "username" as the password, and also the 10 or 15 most common passwords out there... (ie- "password", "1234", "12345," etc...)

This is why it is important to have strong passwords.

The built in "strikes" system in vBulletin makes true extended brute-force attacks impossible but unfortunately there are always people with weak passwords.

lapiervb 12-09-2012 11:36 AM

I had the same thing.

112.133.201.69
124.81.117.36
187.20.208.16
202.164.34.76

peugeot405 12-09-2012 12:03 PM

same for me.
Got 3 emails

186.101.66.238 - Philippines
189.3.236.66 - Brazil
186.101.66.238 - Ecuador

All 3 are known for spam.

Changed my password

Max Taxable 12-09-2012 12:07 PM

Brute force attacks...

USAMustangs.com 12-09-2012 12:27 PM

Same here. I just changed my password to something even more robust.

1 - The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 190.36.229.200

1 - The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 189.15.63.91

interfx 12-09-2012 01:22 PM

Same with me, changed my password. Concerned, because my password was not EASY... Could a hacker have accessed all user passwords on this site?

No.


(apart from anything else, there would be no point in a brute force attempt if they had).

mtlcore 12-09-2012 05:11 PM

I too:

218.108.85.59

Mukashi 12-10-2012 02:48 AM

A series of them here too.

186.215.97.193
201.75.0.235
182.72.148.211
177.23.181.82

Here's hoping they didn't actually manage to get into anyone's accounts.

I've got a very strong password on mine.
