Help, possible hack

Recommended Posts

Twitter just sent me a notification to verify a login from Vietnam

 

I denied it, and changed my password.

 

I was wondering if it sent if because someone attempted, or they succesfully logged in?

They were able to login, however they were blocked probably because they're in another country (I don't know what the conditions are for the block).

No, I hadn't been at my computer for multiple hours

 

Just enough time for someone to type "Giraffe5" in the password field.

 

Edit: fuck...

I hope you don't have the same password for everything. If you do, you might want to consider changing a bunch of your passwords, especially your e-mail if it's linked to your twitter.

 

It's likely whoever did it just tried to bruteforce your account, and won't get into it again for some time. (I had the same shit happen to my WoW account several times.)
