Hi everyone,

A friend of mine pointed out the TFL listing to me. I haven't been active on TFL or in the clothing hobby in general for quite some time. I haven’t posted any listings, nor do I have any jackets for sale. Apparently, someone has taken over my name and profile picture to post fake listings. If anyone has made a deal and paid through a common payment platform, please take immediate action and cancel the payment. I’m sorry that my name and profile have been misused.

The jacket that was offered—and I only had one of them—I sold a long time ago to a trusted TFL member.

Really really sad.

How is this possible, can someone explain it to me?

Fairly certain I got ****med at this point but I'll update here if the situation changes.
Sickening way to start the weekend but appreciate @Jiantle who reached out offline to offer help/confirm my suspicions.

Whatever happens, don't beat yourself up as you're not the only one that would have been ****med.

Seemed like a thrustworthy message & urgency for speed for such a beautiful jacket, made this the perfect 'mark'.

All it takes is 1 moment to be taken like this. I would definitely have been very interested if work didn't keep me from messaging. (bummed when i say it was 'sold').

Appreciate it. Yesterday was definitely a low but hoping to put it behind me and move on.
Happy to see the vigilance from the community and hopefully no one else was caught up in it.

@ypman89, how did you make the payment?

Paypal F&F unfortunately

I am very sorry

Try your bank as this was fraud

 

[twentyfiveshells]

I often use PayPal and will have it drawn from a credit card. That way if there is an issue you have the credit card company providing a second layer of protection. Just a thought.

I hate thieves. The lowest of scum.

could you share the name of the person and/ or PayPal address you sent funds to? I hate to see this community getting sabotaged by one too many of these scum.

Goes by Bryan Oajaca.
Paypal account is [email protected]

Ooof, just saw this thread get bumped. Sorry someone got ****med. New ad post def seemed fishy. Stay aware out there guys. Make sure your passwords are secure folks.

 

[Leigh H]

Makes me wonder if there's been a data breach on the forum and the ****mer has access to many accounts, seems very convenient the ****mer hacked an account that hasn't been in use for some time?

Are the admins aware of this incident?.

 

[marker2037]

What a bummer. ****mers can go to hell.

 

[dinhnguyen57]

I wonder how we can better safe-guard our accounts? Some forums or institutions requre us to re-authenticate our information once a year or every other so that inactive accounts can't be hijacked. Might be something to look into for this forum.

Perhaps if you have not had a login for X # of days, you need to receive an email with a code or link to be able to log back in with the same PW.

Good point. If the account had Dual-factor (aka Multi-Factor Authentication) enabled, it would have most likely prevented this from happening. Once a password expires (within 30 days or the specific policy limit set by TFL), authentication (i.e. by Microsoft Authenticator) would be required to reset the password. If the member chooses not to enable Dual-Factor authentication, a hacker can keep on guessing passwords until they guess correctly. If the TFL member had not enabled Dual-factor authentication and if their associated Email
Account is hacked, the hacker can easily reset the TFL password. If that happened though… the TFL account may be the least of their worries.
