AZB Hacker - What the hell is this about?

[One Pocket John]

I received an e-mail from the management here at AZB alerting me to the fact that this morning my account was being hacked by someone trying to sign into my account.

Do they want to steal my avatar? Are they attempting to make posts in my name?

What do you all think is up with this? .. Here is the e-mail I received from AZB...

Dear Agent 99,

Someone has tried to log into your account on AzBilliards.com with an incorrect password at least 5 times. This person has been prevented from attempting to login to your account for the next 15 minutes.

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 199.127.226.150

All the best,
AzBilliards.com

Here ya go.

I am sure if you change your avatar to this you will not be harassed

If she pulls the trigger from that position, she's gonna hurt herself also.
....kinda like how many actors hold a pool cue....you just know they need lotsa weight.

That email was an automatic notice that the forums send out.

We have been seeing a LOT of this sort of thing over the last month or so. In order to try to combat this, we installed a security add on that automatically bans any IP that enters the wrong password a specific number of times.

I couldn't really tell you why they are trying to hack in though.

Thanks for the info Mike. Nice job adding the security software.
