Gaspode Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I've just received an email (password reset) to the address I'm registered at the club with. Suspect the club may have had a security breach as it's a very targeted email. Be careful if you also recieve one as it's distinctly dodgy - possibly worth changing your passwrod via the official site just to be safe. I've sent the club a message via twitter and also emailed them so hopefully they'll look into it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the advert And you would have seen this page from the club after clicking the ad which checks your browser to block unwanted traffic.

Got suspicious as it comes through from DCFC and not ‘Derby County Football Club’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 OK, hands up everyone who's password is DCFC1884 and uses 1884 as their PIN number. It's OK, you can DM me if you prefer, along with your mothers maiden name and a pdf of a utility bill showing your full name and address. err...I need them to help get some funds released which I am due from a large lottery win in umm....Bolivia. Yeah, Bolivia. For your help in this totally legitimate transaction I will reward you with many dolla and a lucrative mission to scout the footballer formerly known as Tomas Ince.

I wouldn’t post it to our members if I had doubts about it, it’s a tool that has been well published through numerous outlets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a legit site that has been recommended numerous times over the years in IT security world. It can be a bit of a lifesaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By typing your email into that box, you're creating a log that people can access. Not openly, obviously. Which as I mentioned earlier, it's gold dust to any hackers because you're also highlighting that either you think you've already been hacked or you're worried about being hacked.
