Re: For those who use PayPal

Just because I have nowhere else to post this, I got lazy trying to download a DLL file before setting up my virus protection on my new computer and got a virus. I ended up restoring the computer to factory and redid all of my stuff again, but I found out the next morning that three payments totaling to $439.99 were made to advertising agencies from my PayPal account within the five minutes that my computer was on right after the worm came on my computer.

I ended up getting everything refunded and took care of things on my end, but yikes this is the first time I've been a victim of any sort of identity fraud. If y'all ever get hit with a virus at any time, just make sure to look at all your accounts, and often.
