Rash of EPN Hacked Accounts

    This is a warning to strengthen your password on your EPN account. There was a rash of hackings early in the morning of Dec. 13, including my account. I can't login, and stand to lose a very healthy sume of money. Nor is there any indication yet that EPN is doing anything about it despite urgent messages asking for help.

    Sorry to hear that PotentMix, I know you contribute a lot to EPN discussions...hopefully this didn't make you a larger target. Also, what does a person stand to gain when hacking an EPN account? As far as I can tell they can't get any specific personal information...it's all hidden.

    I've now received a message from EPN indicating that my account was compromised and that funds have been placed on hold (six to eight weeks, now, to get them. I now need a bailout to pay my January mortgage).

    The account is being expired, and I'm asked to open a new account. So, I guess I'll have to get in the queue and wait months. Fortunately, I have a Papperjam account approved for eBay, and I've migrated everything over to it. Also, I had reached a "High" quality score level at EPN, and was receiving $40 per ACRU. Will that be lost as well?

    I've posed questions like this to EPN, and maybe will get an answer. Lastly, the message says that they have initiated steps to prevent further compromises.
