    I just got a pm tht I bought a script form a DP member. Then I go to sent page then I was like WTH. I sent a PM to buy that script from that member. BUT I NEVER WANTED TO BUY IT AND NEVER SENT A PM TO THAT MEMBER. SO???? My account was hacked? I changed my password. But how can this be done?

    Is there any Mod to find this situation??? How someone else can use my account to send PM ???

    Just be carefull, if you know you haven't bought anything from them or sold anything to them then ignore them and dont do business with them, that sounds rather dodgey to me.

    Sometimes people will just say you bought a script from them just to try it on, check your sentbox to make sure you haven't sent a pm to that member, if none has been sent to them then chances are your account is ok, but it was a wise idea to change your password.

    If your still worried perhaps you should contact a mod here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showgroups.php

    Oh right, it was just a thought incase you hadnt logged out of a publiv pc.

    I doubt theres much that can be done youve changed your password allready so you should hopefully be ok,its a good idea to change your passwords on other forums you use also. Like i said they probably got your password via a phising site somehow, just keep an eye out for anything unusual.
