    Hello Mods.. Pls help me..

    First of all.. I'm sorry for this new account creation.. But, I have no alternative.. to inform you that my account was hacked.. :eek:

    This morning, I got an email from a guy called gobala krishna saying that he hacked my DP account.. Soon after reading that mail,.. I tried to login to DP..but failed.. I tried to retrieve my pass..but looks like that guy changed email address too..
    He demanded me $50 to get my account back. After few mins.. I tried to visit one of my threads and saw that my account is already banned.. looks like he did something wrong with my account.

    After that, I began to think how he hacked my account.. the pass is not that easy to guess.. I checked my previous emails and came to know that I got phished.. I found he hyperlinked to this phish page in one of the emails i got yesterday..

    forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=278365.

    What to do now.? Please help me Mods.. :(

    Actually my name is Gobala Krishnan with the "n" :)

    Hey but even I get emails which seem to be coming from my own email accounts so spammers have become very creative recently..
