phetphet Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Change your password immediately. I had a friend who lost a large sum of money recently after his email account was hacked. If someone is reading your emails, imagine the personal information they can obtain from you. Not only that, they then can contact "your" contacts.

lopburi3 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 As said immediate change to a very secure password. If no ex or family issues would also check for identity theft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Some background information would help. It does not "say it all". What kind of report is it, generated by what? 180.183.206.42 is supposed to be from Hang Dong, Chiang Mai, a 3BB address. Your forum name does not sound like Chiang Mai. But still I have a strong suspicion that it is or was your IP. The geolocation results for private IPs are often way off. I am supposed to be in Pathum Thani Thanyaburi about 400 km from my real location. Another site suspects me in Bangkok (Lak Si). Also about 400 km off. 107.170.166.118. belongs to Digital Ocean Inc, New York. A cloud computing provider, Can be everything like your email as such. Same for 192.241.177.188 and 192.241.173.138. This thread feels like the hot air from outside. Edited April 28, 2016 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Are you using a VPN? Those are US proxy servers NYC and Washington State. So may well be someone here in Thailand if not you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pib Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 OP, are you using a VPN service? Like a VPN service that gives a U.S. IP address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55Jay Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Would be amusing if the specific location turned out to be in Pennsylvania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THAIPHUKET Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 KhunBenQ compliment for your sleuthing abilities, would't want to be your enemy the warning jumped all of sudden up when I was opening Gmail with Chrome browser/ WIndows 10 My Pen name Thai-Phuket is misleading, since 6 years living in CM near City Hall I do use VNP not sure it is a true VNP service or a browser extension = BROWSEC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 If you use a VPN it was likely just you using it during those periods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THAIPHUKET Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 I installed BROSEC only recently and my guess is its always on, at least I don't do anything But that is probably the answer However, it brings up an essential question= How can one trust any VPN, paid or unpaid you do a complete striptease of all your--electronic--- private parts.

Morakot Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Please don't mock me for not knowing, but how can you check for that? This is only applicable for a gmail account. Edited April 28, 2016 by Morakot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jybkk Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I do use VNP not sure it is a true VNP service or a browser extension = BROWSEC Ding ding ding! We got a winner. Browsec is indeed a VPN service. What it does is makes your browser traffic go through one of their server located in another country than the one you are (for various purposes). You probably used your Gmail while this extension was active, which meant that from Gmail point of view you were accessing from that Browsec server in the US.

KhunBENQ Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Browsec is indeed a VPN service. Also called Browsec VPN Hot air as suspected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THAIPHUKET Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Thanks all for your input. Better question Hot Air than be sorry Still leaves open the question of assumed VPN security, paid or unpaid, samesame With Chrome or any other established browser it is relatively safe to assume that your passwords, etc are not being skimmed. Why would you assume from anonymous VPN servers? What do you do to put your mind at ease? Edited April 28, 2016 by THAIPHUKET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob13 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Please don't mock me for not knowing, but how can you check for that? If you're using GMAIL, in the bottom right is the word 'Details'.

How a little detail info can make a difference Someone from Island just read my mail (just jumped to Island and back with the VPN) Absolutely normal effect when using "anonymizers"/VPNs etc. I remember similar warnings from Yahoo or so. To the systems it looks suspect when you use a mail system from Thailand and five minutes later seemingly from round the globe.
