Concern about being HACKED

#1 - May 12, 2014, 11:23 p.m.

Ok so I just checked my email because for some weird reason i got a log-in attempt yesterday, which i just checked today. After checking, i also found out that i got another log-in attempt last tuesday which i missed. To make matters worse, i searched my email for all other log-in attempt emails, and found out that this has been going on for the past two months.

I even got a log-in email attempt from Massachusetts, and i live in FLORIDA. _

SO i quickly logged in to see which computers have been authenticated and found some which are quite fishy. I removed all of the authenticated computers to start out fresh, which leads to another problem (see image). A current and very recent log in from Texas. Again, i live in FLORIDA

Halp!!

My own account shows “log-ins” from Texas on the exact IP address that Smitz sees:
64.25.32.69

On my account, it was that exact IP address last week. It’s that same IP address today.

That is us.

I cannot say things like “Meh, just ignore Texas on your list.” But as posted by Caro, no authentication request came through, no changes were made to the account or password, and yet I was “logged in.” We know that forum access can present our IP. So that “access” might be assumed to be benign.

Again, no blanket acceptance, but if your account management page (security tab) shows that exact IP, I personally would not be alarmed.

Behellagh.1468:
If you do a whois on the Tx IP it shows it belongs to NCSOFT. The other three are likely yours.
