Oh yeah, and clean your computer with napalm, more than likely you got a keylogger trojan in it, you use Windows?

If you use GMail, enable 2-step verification, it will be a pain in the ass for the 1st days but you'll get used to it.

Don't use the same password on every site, buy this app and use it to store your passwords:

If it's several accounts and they didn't all share the same email address and password then you probably have a trojan.

PS. FYI
I had different passwords for different accounts, all were alphanumeric and non-obvious. I had e-mailed myself reminders but buried them in 'hidden' e-mails that weren't obvious to anyone but me. Yet they still found them.
I'm either really unlucky of the victim of some scary software.
Bank accounts still fine, however. Just deleted everything. Strange

sucks.
like having your computer crash, it has to happen once to teach you to be more careful.

I had my a Gmail account hacked into from somewhere in Eastern Europe. Fortunately there was nothing valuable. Usually Google will alert you if somewhere logs in from a different country.

‘password1234’ was not a good choice, my friend.

Had my Gmail, Facebook and few other online accounts hacked. Fuckers deleted everything and sent an e-mail to all contacts asking for money to be transferred to "the Embassy" in Madrid ASAP.
I hate Nigerians.
Bank accounts seem ok for now, but I know I've e-mailed my bank details for invoices in the past. As well as passport numbers and shit.
This ever happened to anyone? Can you recover any info, or does is it dependent on the e-mail provider etc.?
Luckily they didn't get my QBN yet.
