Account Hacked

Hi guys,

I tried to login to my original account yesterday (Rolex_Persia) and my password didn't work. I though maybe I changed my password and I forgot about it. So, I tried to reset the password with forget password and to my surprise the system didn't recognize my e-mail address! At this point, I was clueless what was going on, I googled my username and brought up one of my old posts and then I realized what happened. Someone has hacked my account . My real name was changed from Ali to John, my avatar was gone and even my location is changed from Montreal to Vancouver.

So, please if one of the moderators can resolve this situation and give me back my account.

Thank you.
Ali

Don't click on links sent in PM messages (especially from new users), change your passwords often, and keep your internet security up to date is a great start...
