I got hacked today

[yOdaddy]

My yahoo account got hacked today and they sent emails to all my contact pretending it was me and telling them to open this link. Just a reminder out there to change your password occasionally to avoid this happening to you. Crazy thing is they changed my password too

yeah, usually the first thing they'll do is change your password so you can't get back into your own account. That sucks- sorry you're having to deal with it.

When you get hacked, they file the keystokes from your most current session. Routinely changing your password won't help this too much. What helps more than anything is to not use the same password everywhere. I think that most people are pretty understanding about that stuff since most everybody in the world has gotten one of those emails.

Yahoo needs to move to https.
