Fern Valley Blog- Hijacked
Sherry asked me to let you all know that her personal email and blog have been hacked. I checked her blog for a split second and found that while it is still there, it has indeed been hijacked. Please don't go there in case it affects other blogs, until we hear back from Sherry. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks so much Shirley, still working on it , for now I am logging in under a new email addy and may have to start a new blog altogether
OK I'll bite....how on earth does someone hijack a blog how is that possible?
Janice, apparently , I got hacked through my personal email. they attempted to access my paypal, luckily I caught that, also my bank and changed my personal email access. Once I had blocked all that I guess they just got even, and managed to hack my password to my blog and screw it up as well. Makes me very sad, I did a lot with it .Had 525 posts, 3 years work heart and tears , and blogger may or may not help me .they scooped all of my log in info, I thought I had good antivirus protection, get I needed better. I am posting from a totally different email and computer at present and will not access my old blog or infor until I can rest assured it is sage
Dang, Sherry. I hope Blogger can help.What did you have for anti virus?
I had Norton, plus windows essentials .
What the heck? How in the world do those hackers DO that? Thanks for the update, I'm afraid to go there now! :(
Ok, so I went there. I can't help it :)
They surely did hack it. WTF?! Adderal?? That's some crazy stuff going on.
And so far google has kindly responned with We can't prove you are who you say you are , so we will let the thief keep it !!!! I answered all of thier questuions on the standard form, they leave no space to add info. Just suck it up! Very sad today
fern valley, I am very good at throwing curses...kind of like baba yaga as my daughter says ...
"may their fingers rot off and may their brain cells become infected with a virus!!!"
there. it may take a few years, but those kind of people always get it in the end... ;)
hope you can get it all straighten out soon!
Thanks , send all the curse you like. I will likely have to star over from scratch. Will let you all know where I land
found cached pages of my blog s it was ,but nt sure how t go about getting google to listen.\Thanks to all for the support
Oh my gosh! FVA I'm sorry to hear this. I know how attached I am to my blog and all the memories it holds :(
got the blog back!! what was left f it . All the posts seem to be gone, but ... I will keep trying
Wow, that is terrible. What an eye opener on how little security we really have.
Sherry, let us know your new blog address when you get it all sorted out, I'll put it in a new post.
Sherry and Shirley, thanks Sherry for keeping us posted and drat those %*%*%*%Thanks Shirley for having your blog as a go between.
Shirley,I got my original addess back and restarted the blog there. Got rid of all, the crap and am rebuildng the blog
OK, got you back on my blogroll. And I'm your first follower- ha! to Go Lightly!
Thanks for letting us know. I stopped by there yesterday several times and kept seeing the pills popping up, but with FV's information still there on the side bars. Creepy. I never thought something like that would happen. What is there to gain from hacking a blog anyway.
I'm so sorry Fernvalley's having to go through something so heinous. She doesn't deserve that at all.

SO sorry to read about all of this. I would not have imagined this happening either! SAD! And I hope Sherry can find all her past blog posts! I type most of mine in a word program, and copy them to the blog, so most of what I've written about is safe.
