how to protect yourself from egold hackers
Here is what e-gold.com sent to me when i contacted them on someone entering my egold account and which i think it will be useful for egold users:
Akeeb,
If your account was compromised while AccSent was enabled, there is a high
probability that you either have a security hole in your computer, which
allowed hackers to take control of your computer or you have a Trojan virus,
spyware or keylogger software installed on your computer because someone not
only had access to your e-gold passphrase, they also had access to your
email address password. AccSent monitors account access attempts and issues
a one-time PIN challenge to those coming from IP address ranges or browsers
that differ from the last authorized account access. Your account was
accessed from remoteip '202.74.73.70' and a pin was sent to the email
address on the account. The person logged into your email account and
retrieved the pin, accessed your e-gold account and made an unauthorized
spend from the account.
Until you remove the malicious software from your computer, your account is
still vulnerable. Your email account has also been compromised so it is
important that you change the password for your account after your computer
is cleaned. If the malicious software is still on your computer, someone is
able to read your emails, delete your emails or send emails from your
account.
The only other way your account could have been compromised is if you
received a phishing email with a link for you to click on to access your
account. If you clicked on the link and went to a fake e-gold site and
entered your e-gold account information along with your email account
information, your account could have been compromised without malicious
software being installed on your computer.
Have you received any emails within the past few weeks, which appeared to
come from e-gold requesting that you log into your account? Did the email
contain a link or an attachment? Did you attempt to open the attachment?
Did you click on the link or attempt to access your account from a link in
this email?
Have you run a complete virus scan of all computers used to access your
account with updated anti-virus software? You should also check your
computer for Spyware and Trojan keyloggers. Some people mistakenly assume
that anti-virus software protects them from keyloggers and Spyware. Most
anti-virus software does not adequately check for keyloggers and Spyware.
If you have checked all the computers used to access your account with only
an anti virus software, we strongly recommend you use a software that
specifically checks for Spyware and keyloggers.
There are Trojans keyloggers that monitors Internet Explorer windows until a
user visits the e-gold login page: e-gold.com/acct/login.html. Once the
user is logged in, the Trojan opens a hidden Internet Explorer window in
which it accesses the user's account balance: e-gold.com/acct/balance.asp.
After ascertaining the value of the user's account it attempts to transfer
their funds to another account using the hidden window.
Most viruses are conveyed by spammed e-mail in the form of HTML messages.
The scripts run on viewing, no clicking on attachments is necessary. They
may also arrive as image attachments. Once the image is viewed, the program
is executed. Either way, the system is now infected and is just waiting for
you to check your e-gold account balance.
You can protect yourself by:
* Using another browser instead of Internet Explorer (IE). Firefox by
Mozilla is an excellent choice. You can visit www.mozilla.org for more
information.
* Do Not auto-preview incoming e-mail.
* Do Not open obvious spam.
* Do run a full virus scan regularly.
As of today we know specifically of 10 viruses that could cause a problem
similar to the one you are having.
1. Win32/Goldun.ia (One customer said he did not find anything when he ran
Norton and McAfee anti-virus software, but he found the Win32/Goldun.ia
Trojan when he used a software called 'Kaspersky')
2. T SPY_HAXDORY (A customer who was receiving the fake login confirmation
page located a virus with Trend Micro Housecall identified as T SPY_HAXDORY.
Removing this seemed to solve the problem without having to reinstall
windows.)
3. TROJ_GOLDUN.DO which has a file named CPU.EXE found in the c:\windows
directory. This was found with Trend Micro's PC-cillin.
4. cpu.exe (Aladinz.l Trojan) more information regarding this virus can be
found at http://www.auditmypc.com/process/cpu.asp
5. GDIWXP.DLL
6. pwsteal.trojan
7. Win32.Grams.I which monitors Internet Explorer windows until the user
visits the e-gold login page: e-gold.com/acct/login.html. Once the user is
logged in Grams opens a hidden Internet Explorer window in which it accesses
the user's account balance: e-gold.com/acct/balance.asp
8. Trojan.LdPinch.L
9. Trojan.PWS.GoldSpy e.exe in Directory D:\Documents and Settings
10. mssync20.exe copies in the windows\system32 directory. This is a
rootkit who is only detectable by its activity with antivirus programs. You
can use the Kaspersky antivirus. It is called rootkit in the internet, this
detects it with some antirootkits, Once customer said, the best for me was
Iceword. You have to remove it manually in secure mode in windows and
search the registry keys (more then 15).
We investigated and placed a block on account #4644717 to prevent it from
receiving additional funds. Unfortunately we will not be able to refund
your money because all e-gold spends are final and not reversible as stated
in the e-gold account user agreement. e-gold is also contractually
prohibited from freezing e-gold accounts or releasing e-gold account
information in the absence of a court order or subpoena. You might want to
consider obtaining some combination of help from a legal professional or law
enforcement to obtain a court order, if the size of your loss warrants
expenditure of your resources (time and money) to resolve.
The court order/subpoena should be presented by postal mail to:
e-gold, Ltd.
c/o Andrew S. Ittleman, Esq.
1001 Brickell Bay Drive
Suite 2002
Miami, FL 33131
If you are able to receive the records electronically please specify the
appropriate email address the records should be emailed to. Please allow a
minimum of 2 weeks for the production of any e-gold records.
In order to ensure you get all pertinent information when issuing the court
order or subpoena to e-gold Ltd please:
- Ask for e-gold account profile information for account number #4644717
- Ask for transaction history information for account number #4644717
- Ask for information on any other accounts owned or controlled by the
individual
- Ask for counteraccount_id profile information. This is the account
profile information for any accounts that made payments into or received
payments from the subpoenaed account
- If applicable, ask for stabilization of the funds in question "freezing of
the account if the funds are still under the control of the perpetrator"
Thank you,

Typically, the home based affiliate marketing business is a great opportunity for those people who want to venture out on their own. The minimal risk and zero start up costs make it an attractive option to many. The affiliate marketing partner programs are perfect for those people who are motivated and self starters. They are also great for those who want to set their own working hours. Also, they are free to sign up and join for advertising online. In general, the internet has been proven that it has helped up change so many aspects of our lives. We can study and work from home with the help of a computer and high speed internet access. We can exchange and find out the information easily on the internet. However, there are unfortunately lots of hackers out there ready to take either your money or your work to use for their benefits. Many of these email scam programs and work at home schemes have little hope of amounting to any kind of living. Unfortunately, these hackers have made their ways into the world of affiliate marketing as well. There are some excellent affiliate marketing partner programs to get involved with; the trick is how to spot the hackers. The face and manner of the internet and home based affiliate marketing business is constantly changing. This makes it very difficult to produce a definitive list of what we should do and do not. However, there are some signs that we can look for. If the company displays any of these signs, it does not mean for sure that we should avoid forever. Actually, it should warrant further investigation hardly if the affiliate program is worthwhile.
Instructions
Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Steps
1
Step One
Walk through and check their website carefully. If the company has no quality website, then you should consider something else. Legitimate affiliate marketing partner programs generally have a detailed website with all the information you need. One should be suspicious of companies that operate only by email. A website is fairly easy to create so why this company has not invested the time to do so. Also, a website leaves a bit more of a trail to a company. If they do end up scamming you, the chances of tracing the people, via a website, are much better then tracing them through masses of email addresses.
2
Step Two
Look for their support service in the affiliate program. The affiliate marketing partner programs should always provide you with some supports. This can include an agent that you can contact with questions or problems. A legitimate company should want you to do well. The better you do, the better they do. Your sales are their sales either. It should at very least contain a toll free phone number, email address and fixed street address. If the company is an online affiliate marketing partner program, the lack of an email or web page should definitely raise some red flags. Other things such as no phone or address do not mean necessarily that they are trying to scam you. However, it is a good idea for you to investigate them further.
3
Step Three
Send couple emails to ask some questions for their affiliate programs. Personally, I believe that another good test is to send the company couple emails with some basic questions. If it takes them weeks to get back to you, then you need to give this venture careful consideration. Again, they may not be a scam for you, but if they are poor at communication, this could be a sign of other internal problems. The highest recommendation is to avoid the affiliate marketing partner programs, which have a very poor communication. With the poor communication, it can lead to other problems particularly related to your affiliate commission payment. Also, I believe that you are not comfortable with the poor communication and other internal problems, which you don’t know.
4
Step Four
Communicate directly to their dedicated affiliate manager. It is obvious that you should determine how well communication of the affiliate marketing partner program is to determine by their dedicated affiliate manager. An affiliate manager in the company is the person who takes a fully responsibility of the affiliate marketing partner program and affiliate marketing entrepreneurs. Without a dedicated and proactive affiliate manager, you should put more consideration on the affiliate marketing partner program. Communicating with the affiliate manager is the most effective approach to determine whether the affiliate marketing partner programs is scam or not. With the right communication, you can ensure that those affiliate programs are real.
