Attempt to hack into my account

[Beechwoods]

Hi Mike!

I've blocked that IP now. It's a Chinese IP address. Generally these are just attempts by spammers to gain access to accounts with poor passwords. Make sure your password is reasonably strong and you'll be fine.

Cheers chaps!

I just had the same thing today.

Hi Frank,

How’s it going? I hope you are well

Don’t worry, it’s just some no-life tossers, somewhere in China and Russia, with nothing else better to do with their empty and pathetic lives, trying to cause mischief. Like Nick says, just ensure that your password is secure, and we’ll continue to ban the IPs.

Trust me, they'll get bored way sooner than we will of banning their IPs, and go back to doing whatever it is that losers, sad cases, and pathetic underachievers, with no life do!

Marco.

Hi Mike!

Internet access from China to the rest of the world is heavily regulated and monitored. To gain access through the great Chinese Firewall in order to spam and hack accounts would have to be state approved. So if AoS is being hacked it would have to be by a hostile government sponsored hacker.
So what kind of state secrets would AoS be in possession of that would attract such kind of foreign interests? Is it the lack of exposure of well known Chinese audio brands?

Although there are ways of evading the Authorities over there, the GFC is pretty effective and very fluid. I'd agree with Stanley....they are not happy with all the Chinese valve bashing here....
