i guess it will be huge problem for any one specially that the email could contain some passwords as some sites send it with registration info..
and the mail could contain some personal and privacy info too...
it is a huge problem :?
but in this case i will change all my passwords in all the sites i know just incase and for more security..
thats what i can do now is to only change passwords although it can be known if there is a keylogger so its a very big problem.Quote:

After all, you know you are the owner and they know how to prove that..don't worry. About other emails, you must be having security questions asked..yahoo email security questions can not be changed, so you can easily recover your password..for google..just contact them and they will be helping you too..hacking is easy these days..but getting your accounts back is also fully supported now.Quote:

But paypal is really good one since i have been using it since one year
yes i know that paypal is good but they are all the same with the same securities or very near to each others , in case of hacking so all these accounts will be stolen ,thats what i am asking about ..Quote:

i have never had my email been hacked.but if it happens,i will get the email account as soon as possible and change the password immdiately.
i never save important password in my email.i dont know what will be worse.i feel secure.
I feel that first of all you should inform paypal or e-gold or LR about the hacking of your email. Ask them to freeze your account at once.
Once they have acted according to your instructions, your money is safe. Then you can get a new password and start operating your account there.
They are smart enough to check who the real owner of a particular account is.
But on top of everything else, do not store any password in any email. Immediately, change the password once you get it through email.
if i ask them to freeze my account so all my payments won't be processed then .Quote:

I don't how they do this internally and I feel no one would be knowing this . :lol:Quote:

so its really important to remember the security question and answer.Quote:

but don't you think that if one steals the account , can't change all my information ?
so then how will they trust that it was my account ?
Now then I think IP records comes in... your login and all details :lol:Quote:

i doesn't mean that, it always depend on hacker how he hacks...if you provide what ever details required to them then they can provide account back to you.
yes okay .. but can i make a new security question and answer ?Quote:
