Did they give the first lad back his team too?

Yeah, they told him that they couldn’t do anything for him when he raised it himself, then things changed when the other 2 lads raised it aswell.

I'm very surprised plenty of people seem to be ok with this situation. Serious dent in the credibility and trust in those who are running the game.

Turns out FPL didn’t do as much as was thought. They’ve restored the teams but can’t undo all the transfers made apparently.

An added layer of security would help, email should be sent to you confirming you want to delete. Unless the hacker has your email account aswell

Now that would be useful. Even a text.

Why is it on fpl to go to extra lengths, because someone entered their username/password on a 3rd party site? Where is the line drawn? Confirmation via text or email to make transfers?

It’s not really for that. It should exist because something different could happen to any of us. Email etc aren’t THAT secure anymore. Hence why a lot of sites have dual verification for certain things.

Have a look here and check if your email has ever been hacked. Think most have to some extent.

Another similar one that you can check:
https://haveibeenpwned.com/

The latest firefox also has this built in and will notify you if it sees an email you've used be mentioned in a breach.
https://monitor.firefox.com/

It will only flag something though if the breach was disclosed or if the guy who runs the site gets notified somehow and adds it to his database.

This obviously wouldn't flag the FPL incidents mentioned above but if your password / email combination is in there there's nothing to stop someone trying the same combination on the fpls site if they had nothing better to do with their lives.

Exact same for me

steve_r · 25-09-2019 8:23pm

2 on a gmail account I've used for about 9 years.

1 on a hotmail account I've used a lot longer

And I bet you one of them is the same login details you use for FPL

Fitz* · 25-09-2019 11:11pm

Also 13 & 8 for me.

But it did say that I have not been hacked in 8 months. I think I got a big hack recently as I got an email notification but also someone changed all my Netflix details. They didn't even want money or try accessing my bank, just wanted free TV!

He does PewPew in video games.

Couldn't pick him out myself in a line up but know the name!

I've an EA account I set up to download a free game they had on offer. It has 2FA. I get text messages in Russian nearly every day with an access code so someone is trying to grab it

Had a heart attack at the start as thought my card details were there but thankfully I never bought anything on it

Strange its 13 & 8 for a few of us given how unlikely it is we use the exact same services?

Just tried it with my gmail account and it came back with zero which was surprising!

It shows you all the leaks they came from and the email and actual password that was hacked if you click into the email they sent you.

Check out the email they sent. It shows you what passwords were leaked. I recognised a few of mine.

Some of the sources are not from a specific site but were found on leaked databases online. Some are over a billion accounts strong. It's probably why so many seem to get the same number.

Shanotheslayer · 26-09-2019 4:30pm

3. None in my last 2 years.

Shanotheslayer · 26-09-2019 4:35pm

Just checked my email address I use for absolutely useless stuff or really old things.

Got hacked a lot more.

The bastards stole My MySpace password 1 year ago. Didn't even think it was still a thing :pac:

Couldn’t read it. Well not past the first paragraph of ‘the rank’. Struggled up to that point too.

Person void of humour attempts humour.

Just lay out the ****ing facts and leave the funny to someone else.
