Phishing attack!?
Guys today I got a email from what looks Footballcoin saying footballcoin was attacked by hackers and I had to change the passwords as soon as possible.
I did not click any of the links and the address was
info@footballcoin.ioPlease be aware! Please let us know if this email is from footballcoin or not.
Yes, it is our email address.
There is an ongoing attack from last night on the user accounts that is trying to hack accounts without 2FA.
Just want to congratulate the team on handling this issue swiftly and professionally with minimal damage. You handled it better than a lot of huge exchanges.
The attack was neither on the exchange nor on our game platform or data base, it was directly on the users accounts, trying to hack them.
The attackers apparently were using data bases of existing id, email and passwords hacked in other sites data bases.
That is the reason why we are asking not to use the same passwords and id on several sites because even when we are safe with our data base the user accounts can be hacked with data stolen from other sites.
