Hacked account ??

August 07, 2012, 09:57 PM posted in General DiscussionHey, this is the strangest thing. When I just a few minutes ago went on CPod for the day on my iphone, I noticed my avatar had changed!...and I hadn't changed it! When I retired last night it was still an avatar of Mr Bean's Olympic Dream, and then just now it was some random face I didn't recognise. I came on the computer about 10 minutes later and it was back to being Mr Bean. I double checked my iphone and it was still this unrecognised avatar, but when I refreshed it was back to Mr Bean. How could this be so? Has someone hacked my account? Has this happened to anyone else? Is it possible for CPod to look into this?
bababardwan
ps the only folk that I have ever known to go into someones account are CPod themselves...were they testing something using my account perhaps?

I currently don't know of anyone doing such testing. I'll keep a close eye out though and making sure it isn't being done on the product site and only with their own testing accounts. Thanks for the heads up.
bababardwan
thanks rich for your reply. I haven't noticed anything strange going on before or since. I'm wondering if RJ has the solution below, but I'm not sure what he means.
bababardwan
呵呵，就是。。。可是可能是他！

你是说Ben Stiller的头像，还是这个头像是你自己换的？
bababardwan
Ben Stiller的头像我自己换的，因为我们的朋友Tal给我要求，但是以前MrBean头像暂时换的，我没换的，以后MrBean头像回来了。。真奇怪，真神秘

August 08, 2012, 09:20 AMiphone? Could it have been a blow up shot (extreme closeup) of Mr Bean? I think it might have been that fat fingers guy.
bababardwan
RJ,
come again? fat fingers just makes me think of how folk complain about using iphone keyboards...that they have fat fingers....I don't know who the "fat fingers guy is" ...please explain.
Could it have been a blow up shot (extreme closeup) of Mr Bean?
....well no matter how much I zoom in, I can't replicate it [I still get the surf in the background, the upper torso, whereas the avatar I saw was face only]. And the thing is at the time the avatar was at it's default smallest as was the writing....and then when I noticed how different the avatar was I tried to zoom in and check it out. Very stange.

Sometimes the universe sends you a clear message that you need to change your avatar. Again. Come on, you really want to change it baba, don't you? Don't you? Please?
bababardwan
hehe, not a fan of Mr Bean either Tal old mate? You and RJ are of accord again, hehe
bababardwan
ok, just for you mate. How could I resist such a request from an old friend? RJ's just gonna love this, hehe
Tal
我的妈呀！Marginally preferable I guess. Now I'm wondering if your earlier sighting of "some guy's face" was a 'future echo' of this, unless of course you were being vouchsafed some vision of the Lord, lol.
bababardwan
"unless of course you were being vouchsafed some vision of the Lord, lol"
...no, she's female, right? ..and this pic was definitely male
"a 'future echo' of this"
...Well "Magnum" looks pretty futuristic, so if Derek can pull that off, I don't see why he couldn't pull off a spot of time travel. 你很有道理
Tal
She's female? Ha ha. How do you make that one out?
bababardwan
I'm surprised you of all don't recall oh great and wise monkey:

Tal
LOL - forget what Monkey said on that occasion?
"I always thought you were a fella! You are in me!" ;-)
bababardwan
now for fessin up time. I initially made that female comment off the cuff and partly to appease any poddies of the fairer sex who had read the creepy guy thread and may have had their feathers ruffled, hehe. Then of course you go and call me on it and I have to quickly think of an escape...and there it was, right before my eyes in your avatar, haha ;)
...yeah, thanks for the quote..hehe, good one :)

August 07, 2012, 09:58 PMbtw, did anyone happen to catch that different avatar, and if so, any idea who it was an avatar of? It was an extreme closeup of some guy's face staring straight at the camera and a bit distorted as it was so close up
I have no idea how long it had been there...whether just a few minutes, or overnight....
