Default Re: Full Tilt Poker Account - Fraud Activity Investigation

This seriously sucks, I wish some more security features would be implemented.

This situation doe seriously suck, and I do feel for the OP. I sincerely hope you get the money back. With that said, I'm not sure what FT is supposed to implement, regarding more security features?

I mean, the OP had his computer stolen, and his password saved/remembered on his computer. How can FT possibly prevent this? To suggest that they need tighter security for events such as these is absurd. Now if the OP's account had been hacked into, I would agree with you, tighter security would be needed. But in this case, I don't think FT can really implement any further measures.

As far as the keystroker reference, my advice to y'all is the following:

1. Don't surf porn [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (if you really feel compelled, then at least do a virus scan afterwards)

2. Keep your anti-virus software up to date, and scan your computer frequently.

3. keep your anti-spyware software up to date, and scan your computer frequently.

4. Install a firewall if you don't currently have one.

5. Change your password frequently! ( I change mine weekly) and DO NOT keep it remembered or save it to your computer!

GL all, and stay safe!
