Guest linkexperty Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Few days ago, my closed friend’s account got compromised I don’t know how, after completing his 400th delivery.Account had around $100+ funds which is probably withdrawn by now by the hacker. This hacker is logging in from Russia it seems.The hacker, change his password, email and mobile number and even the payout details.But fortunately, he can access the account from his google account linked to it. But with this access, he can’t change the email, the password or even his mobile number.Please advise what to you would do in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But can’t changes email, pass abd mobile numberBut it can’t be changed without sms verification or email verification - he needs the access to phone or email. Looks really strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invaderroxas Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Regardless of how this happened, your friend should definitely contact CS for assistance, as they’re going to be the only ones who can assist them in this case. I would also advise that your friend changes all of their passwords with any accounts associated with the e-mail they used for Fiverr, including the e-mail itself, just to be on the safe side. I wouldn’t be surprised if whoever breached his account did so by using their e-mail, so it is likely they have access to that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
