    Nope. Although I do have the sum of one hundred thousand united states dollars coming any day now via western union...

    That is what I first thought when I got the email. Then I looked back and I got a transaction record email from paypal the day before that I didn't notice saying that I paid 60 bucks for a 1 year membership to megaupload, which I didn't.

    I logged into my paypal account (not clicking on any email links because phishing was what I suspected), and was forced right away to change my password, security question and confirm my address (via phone which I have yet to do).

    They also started a dispute for me and on the 7th I got my money back, and it is in my PP account.

    What I am thinking is it was a forum or something that somebody accessed the password through. I know that most encrypt the passwords, but a lot I guess don't either.

    So you think having tubgirl as my homepage has something to do with it??

    Oh, and if I told you what my password has been for the last 5 years, you would laugh at how simple it is. Any simple cracking program out be able to figure it out.

    It's dumb because I know better too...I just though it could never happen to me.
