intgold hacked

[slimline]

Somebody stole money from my INTGOLD ACCOUNT.I was caught unaware.INTGOLD has supplied IP address as 69.44.58.75. Could anybody help me out in tracing this fraudster.

IP address as 69.44.58.75 Might be the admin of BettingMasters.com, a known scammer.
IP matched with his in Gold-Horizons ip logs.

Thanks Jaukki for the information.I have traced the funds finally reaching to e-gold a/c No. 1529221 owned by some Harry Landerman. Is he the same conster of betonmarkets ?

I have notified e-gold about this.Are there any chance of recovering the money?.

I would wish to notify everbody that inspite of Zone Alarm Firwall/AVG Software in place in my system such unfortunate events have happened.

Could you please help me out to do a total rescan of my system so the system is free of bugs/trojans etc.

I doubt that is the real name or it might be some other hacked account that is used to recycle the money to a third account. Luca of Bikini-invest might have some information about the bettingmasters guy. I only have his ip.

I have notified e-gold about this.Are there any chance of recovering the money?. Chances are extremely slim. E-gold will not return the money.

As a first aid you could download and install a free avast virus scanner from http://www.avast.com and few trojan hunters. for example:
Ad-aware from http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
Spybot - Search & Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/
and maybe couple of others just to make sure.

Also if you check the top of this page you`ll see `Resources and Links` in which you might find some additional tools to help you `clean up` your computer.

Many of these have or are currently being used by members.

Well well well....all very sinister......

There were many warnings of "trojans" and nasties on that Bettingmasters site too. Hmmmmm...

What is this world coming to......

PLEASE DON'T ANSWER THAT !! sil#

I've had good luck with Pestpatrol on finding some nasties. Pestpatrol.com, I THINK they still have the free version, which finds things. The paid version removes them.

Good luck,
Jeff

Hi Awty/Forwardone/Jaukki & Moderators,

Thanks for giving tons of wonderful advice on PC security.I tried to recollect how misadventure of a virus in my PC is too dangerous to ignore.

This is how the sequence of virus events on my PC have lead to my intgold hacking.I posted earlier in this thread that a program by the name of omdkdj 32 was trying to act as an internet server .This pop up was furnished everytime by Zone Lab Firewall Alert, when i tried to shut down my PC.Well this continued for a long peroid aprox.-2 months. I was not aware of the vulnerabilities of IE then.Even, shutting down of windows was not normal , because Wait- End Task -Cancel pop up window always appeared. I was too ignorant at that time.

This had become a gnawing problem, so i tried AVG anti-virus, and lo it detected Backdoor Agent Virus-PadDoor a brief description which I later learned on that this bad patch sends information to the implanter of the virus.Believe it or not , the impostor realised that this implant had been removed from the system and he made away with my INTGOLD Account.Then I was late to change my password.

Bottomline- Any small deviation noticed in the function of PC,do not take it lightly.

Hope this helps new comers !
