You get an email with your login verification code, when you didn't try to log in.

I had to login to my account this morning and I never logged out yesterday. Not sure if it was a two step auth thing after turning it on or something else. No SH emails until I logged back in to get on. Although it didn't send me a text, I had to do email.
He got @Farmerbrown32 for 500 bucks on the nightforce scope it turns out.
He messaged me after lunch today about it and I havent clarified if it happened at the same time yesterday morning or if its since I have changed my password and hes somehow still in?

Yes, the auto log out was due to the two-factor authentication. I turned mine on yesterday as well and got logged out and had to authenticate. Glad it’s working as designed.
Ya it was like 8am yesterday morning. He got 500 through zelle and then i sent him 350 through paypal but for some reason he refunded it. And this happened twice. First he said was his brothers paypal account and like 10 minutes after i sent it the payment was refunded. And then he asked me to send it to a different account so i did. And then that got refunded also. I smelled a rat from the beginning but i kept looking at the positive feedback so i decided it was legit. And i knew the whole damn time it was not. Live and learn i guess. Id like to get ahold of that fucker i know that.
Well shit, shit, shit!! Damnit man! I believe that whenever possible to trust your gut. If it feels wonky or smells like a rat, it probably is. Sorry that the shitbag got you!
Zelle is linked to a bank account, so it might be possible to at least track down the mule that is getting the money for them if you wanted to pursue it.
There is a chance the scammer could still have access to your account.
I did a little test.
I changed the password on my account.
Closed the web browser and then opened it back again to a bookmarked link.
Was able to get right in even though the web browser didn't have the password.
Some kind of saved token cookie or such.

Yea
I was pretty disappointed
Well yeah, we all know you're into big black cocks, so...
That’s what I’m afraid of. I changed my stuff and it made me relief in yesterday but after I added two factor it didn’t make me again. So maybe somehow it only does sometimes?
In any case, it seems everything was yesterday morning only even though I heard about it today. I’m just keeping an eye on it.

False advertising!
Are you guys using email two factor, or an app like authy?
I just set up authy, and it asked me to two factor in again after closing the window - although it does have an option to remember this device for 30 days.

When I activated mine, I recall it saying that it will keep you logged in on that particular device for 30 days before requiring a re-authentication.
Lol I believe his picture is Nacho Libre....
I can't believe some of you guys try to do business with people that have the same spelling, punctuation and vocabulary as the Nigerian prince that keeps asking for me to wire him some money.
As prevalent as scammers are these days I would think the thirdworldshithole-ese would be a dead giveaway.

Let us know if you track down the hacker and a thousand of us will go pay our respects.
Exactly. Not trying to be a dick, but how in the fuck did anyone get fooled after seeing his grammar???
^^^^^ This.
I noticed it right away in the screenshots.
Here's also my method of keeping passwords.
I have flash drive secured with really strong password - something like "1 crazy Fox jumps over 2 lazy Dogs" or "Vis Pacem Para Bellum 1954", and encrypted.
Only 1 text file on this drive - my passwords.
And the fact that the default for those guys is to ask for $500, the max for most reloadable giftcards
Besides two factor verification, everyone should be using a password manager. I NEVER use the same password in more than one place. I don't know any of my passwords except the one to log into my password manager. They're all the maximum allowed number of characters, up to 25 for me but you can go bigger, combination of letters, numbers and special characters. I use OnePassword but there are quite a few. Mine has both OS X and iOS versions, not sure about Android or Windoze, and they are linked through an encrypted file stored in Dropbox so I can access the passwords on any phone or computer I've linked to my Dropbox account. Even then, I still need the password to get access.
Another good practice is to use those same long, individual strings, which are automatically and randomly created by OnePassword, to answer security questions on websites that require those. What's the name of your first pet? gp&F#0lnLP*w@vVpKL)L24sDS

Please tell me more about these laden swallows? Not asking for a friend.
I'd add that if it does happen and you catch it, a way to possibly mitigate damage would be to have a buddy on here tank your feedback until it gets unfucked.
A few red flags in feedback would be more than enough to make me at least take a look.

This. Norton will also do it if you have that already.
Anyone have a good recommended solution for Android/Windows like this, one that wouldn't be a nightmare to manage on both platforms?
KeePass on Windows, KeePass2Android on Android, and Dropbox, google drive, or Onedrive to sync them
Where'd the guy go? Is the scope still for sale?
Just wondering. I have a $2000 Money Gram ready to send in one hand, and a Western Union money order in the other. I also have a wallet full of pre-paid gift cards if that is the preffered method of payment. I just need the residential address from the seller. I can send ASAP.
