People still trust all of their passwords to third party closed source vendors who are prime targets for hackers? Wow. It's worth mentioning that it's super easy for a seller to create a PayPal invoice, and that you should always ask them to do so: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/email-invoice The invoice should list exactly what goods and services they are contracting to provide, what condition they're in, and how and when they will be delivered. It forms the basis of an agreement that PayPal can see and act on if shenanigans are afoot. If a seller won't do that, then I'd let someone else take the gamble on them.

Root Admin proffrink Posted October 23, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted October 23, 2018 Really not a huge amount wrong with storing your passwords in one, properly secured place right now. It certainly beats most other forms of storing them and certainly is better than reusing passwords. Also that article points to the fact that the leaked passwords were still hashed (as they should be) and are therefore uselese without decryption keys. Whilst still a disaster it goes to show how a specialist company is still better at the job than 99% of online shoe shops. The best practical solution is 2 factor authentication where possible. It's not unbeatable but it is difficult to the point that it's not worth the time for a hacker. I'm looking into 2FA for here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haroldiniho Posted October 23, 2018 Author Share Posted October 23, 2018 I did ask questions to the seller about the gun and he described it to me and negotiated a price too, I've bought a lot of guns from this site and others and he knew what he was doing I'm thinking another airsofter did it myself. But I did think when I did it with the old say if it sounds too good to be true it most probably is, also when he said it's 'new' well they stopped making them years ago so my bad also.... nevermind all sorted now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be optional if implemented. I'm not too sure about the negative correlation between adrenaline-fueled, danger-seeking toy gun enthusiasts and online security but if you find a connection do let us know.

skintrade Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Just now, proffrink said: It would be optional if implemented. 2FA is something I always recommend for anything where financial and personal data is concerned, it's less critical for forums, but if the option is there with session based management to save having to use every time on same device (2FA check on new device/log in) I'll take it!

Root Admin proffrink Posted October 23, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted October 23, 2018 Like you I wouldn't be too bothered if my account didn't have admin access and the like, but this would be more for the peace of mind of some. Staff have been required to use 2FA for some time to access their accounts and we do use sessions to not make that a huge pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never heard of that password lockers before. Hence why it was attacked because it was shit. Use lastpass or keepass. Only decent ones.

Arwen Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Just pitching in... Lastpass is an excellent password manager. Syncs across your devices, hooks in with your finger print reader on your phone if you wish. Chrome and firefox extensions work perfect. It also has an inbuilt password generator that you can set up different "profiles" for. I highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skintrade Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Have my own password generator code, served me well for the last 5 or 6 years since I wrote it. But LastPass is a solid tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
