chalkie, it's just a code you have to type at the end of your password , betfair/google send you a new code every minute so it's pretty hard to hack an account even if you know someones username and password . good luck , hope it gets sorted for you |

By:
good point casemoney about sportsbook, thought it was a simple pass off fraud. Frankly I am surprised BF IT dept weren't alerted by all the different IP addresses in such a short time.
|

By:
someone hacked my account only £230.00 - they layed all on doctor harper to lose but it pissed in, i assume they were betting on it to win and wanted more money in pot? just told nothing BF could do and just change password

By:
I'll catch chalkie if betfair give me 5%
|
|
By:
i was at work at time in coventry and ip address was in london that placed bet
|
|
By:
OK, call me thick, but what if the bet won? How would they have taken the money out of your account?
|
|
By:
Looks like i am in the hands of Betfair IT security then lol
Even if the bet had won how would they get the money out to a new bank account etc without registering it and by which time i would have seen the wrong doing and it would have been stopped. If they had done something on the Exchange then it would have been hard to prove any wrong doings if an accomplice had matched the bet and dragged the money |
|
By:
I refused to answer that question Card
If he had been in front of me me, i might have been tempted to slap him lol |
|
By:
if won bf prob hold back saying bet was not placed from your ip so void ???
|
|
By:
its a pain but always withdrew money end of day i use bf so never leave money in account overnight after that happend
|
|
By:
I wish someone would hack mine,they might leave me something
I certainly wouldn't be laughing about it ![]() |

Hi Guys, Can this two step authenticator be set up without using the google authenticator app? Namely just a text from Betfair to my mobile?
|
|
By:
Can do **** all about it and like i said what transpires is down to Betfair at the end of the day no matter how much i bleet about it
|
|
By:
I'm not too savvy,but do my bets on my IPad and those on my PC at home,have the same IP address?
|
|
By:
My bet would be the bet was legit albeit not by chalkie.
Someone will have logged into your account by mistake(maybe very similar login details) or maybe a glitch from Betfair's end somewhere where they've logged someone into your account instead of their own It wouldn't be the first time its happened |

I Just being facetious Gory to make light of a desperate and ugly situation
The only time i will be laughing a bit realistically will be if Spencer gets beat on Spinniker in the 4.10 cause i won't be able to get on what i want. Coup De Vent in the 4.40 Ling would have been my EW bet today as been waiting for it to run so that won't make me too happy if it goes in either.........................................LOL |

Diffo IP Mike unless ur using the Wifi at home for your IPAD ,you will be accessing the internet differently

@RothmanMike -- I'm not too savvy,but do my bets on my IPad and those on my PC at home,have the same IP address?
The short answer is to google "my ip" and it will tell you what ip address you are using The long answer is yes or no, or perhaps. If your pc and ipad at home share the same wifi link, then probably yes. If you mean when your ipad is hundreds of miles away and connected by your mobile service provider or public wifi, then no. |

Pablo......I will get on to them. Ta!

Once you have GA running, you can get a one-off code texted to your mobile if you need it (I suppose if GA crashed or you broke your phone and had a non-smartphone temporary one)

Have you been using free Wifi?
I think its possible to 'sniff' out passwords on mobile devices when accessing free wifi if somebody in the vacinity has the knowhow. I never use free wifi, its as good as a trap and a false economy, you cant possibly know how safe it is. Also, if anyone hasnt noticed, you shouldnt log into your account via this forum page either as its insecure, you should go via the main exchange page then refresh this one...I dont know why its not secure, it just is. |
|
By:
It isn't dustybin, the login box is secure I understand, but the rest of the page eg this post isn't secured on its way through the internet.

By:
just winding you up der chalkie man
hope you get it sorted ![]() |

By:
Hi Longbridge. Just use my mobile for calls and texts really. I am a Luddite! Do you have to keep wifi and data switched on to receive codes via the authenticator. ( it's an age thing!)

Computer has normal Internet security and seems to be all ok. Login details saved on computer and logs in automatically.
Mobile is fingerprint login I dont login from Forum |
|
By:
dave on my firefox page if you attempt to start inputting you info in the sign in part it warns you that its not safe.
It never used to, about two months ago the padlock changed on this page from a green one to one with a line through it. |
