Many of you don't know me but my names Chris or UnicornDookie Today I was a victim of a cyber attack :/ They **** my paypal. They **** my MC server, note that I had over 5k into that and it is now gone. My friend that I had met in 2010 over MC decided that since I deopped him on my server and told him he didn't deserve Co-Owner **** me over through skype. I don't know what he did or how he did but before I knew it he had control over my PC. He first RUINED the server by deleting all it's backups and griefing everything. He then thought it would be nice to lock me outta my paypal account and make anonymous purchases for Donor ranks on more than 15 servers. Now I have finally gotten this all solved and straightened out except for all the money I have put into the server for it to get **** over. I'm just asking ANYONE in thetechgame community to please help me out by giving me some information on how to stop this from ever happening again. I wouldn't ask anyone else but you guys, I trust all you guys. You have made my gaming experience so much better over the years and I'm asking you all for this BIG favor. Please anyone help me out I can't afford this happening again.

You could encrypt your hard drive change all passwords
to alphanumerical and even just get a really great anti -virus like Vipre or something. Plus since I dont know how he had control over your PC you should just reformat your HDD as to get rid of rats and keyloggers.
In the end the most important thing is to change your passwords.

The only way he would have been able to do this is from a keylogger to get your passwords or you been logged into paypal and giving him remote access to your PC i believe, just download a security program like AVG etc scan your PC, as for the money i'm not sure you can get it back if he donated it but if you phone paypal maybe they'll be able to assist you in getting it back or atleast some of it.
