By doing this, there is no way to validate your claim or to perform forensic analysis as to what the malware is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabeelmansoor 22 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 A few weeks ago, my LinkedIn, Facebook, and Gmail accounts fell victim to a hack orchestrated by rambler.ru. This incident led me through a painstaking ordeal of seeking assistance from these platforms. I had to verify my identity using my passport in order to regain access to my compromised accounts. The hacker displayed cunning tactics by altering my default email addresses to unfamiliar ones. I suspect that my credentials might have been exposed due to a breach affecting services like LastPass or analogous platforms. I strongly recommend enabling two-factor or multi-factor authentication as a proactive measure to ensure your long-term online security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think it is common sense to stay away from Russian web sites these days. Quote An elevated amount of abusive accounts have recently originated from rambler.ru, which we would classify as a medium risk profile. https://www.ipqualityscore.com/domain-reputation/rambler.ru Edited August 27, 2023 by itman nabeelmansoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Most Valued Members Nightowl 205 Posted August 31, 2023 Most Valued Members Share Posted August 31, 2023 Rambler is a website that is similar to Yahoo/MSN and is owned by Sberbank , I doubt it will launch attacks on specific users to steal their instant messaging accounts Another connection is that the attackers used emails from Rambler.ru services , which is the same thing if the attacker used gmail or proton or whatever , since even bad actors that aren't connected to PC work used ProtonMail which is based on Switzerland. It doesn't matter where it's coming from , even if from your friends , if the link isn't supposed to come or the message look weird , don't open it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
