Title: SR Login Asks for pin now? Won't let me log in after as well
Post by: Heizenberg on December 25, 2012, 04:53 pm
When I go to the SR Login page to put in my User and PW it now asks to use pin and when I ignore the box to type it in, it takes me to a page saying SR made pins now required to login so I typed in my pin and now it says SR is under maintenance check back in 6-8 hours.

Is anyone else getting this? is that PIN something hackers put in to keylog us and take our money because I only have 8 dollars so they can take it for all I care

UPDATE : Apparently the site I had used was a phishing site and they took my 8 dollars and left me with 12 cents. LOL I'm actually more upset at the fact I have to change my pin number now -__-

Don't use that SR URL as it's an attempt at phishing to get your details. There is NO PIN REQUIRED to access the real SR website. Here is the correct SR URL. -   http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/

Sadly I already entered pin, I knew something was odd but I didn't really have anything of value and thought maybe SR does require PIN as an update for security or whatever. I just hope he didn't change my pin or else I have to ask admins to reset my pin and that'll take awhile.

Thank you for the proper link, I saved it.

Merry Christmas

No worries. Quickly try to access the real SR site and change both your password and PIN if you can. That's only going to be possible if the scammer hasn't already used your details to enter the site and change your password/PIN themselves.

changed PIN first thing as I logged in and you reminded me to change my password ( still exhausted from party last night, clearly not thinking properly today) much appreciated man, looks like the guy was more interested in money than screwing over accounts on top of things.

Happy Holidays!

I guess you used wikipedia to get the link too, and then entered your pin. You are lucky about the 8 bucks, the mother fuckers stole close to 300 from me.   >:(

Glad I could help Heizenberg. At least your back in control of your account and are able to keep your stats. Happy Holidays to you too.  :)

Sorry to hear what happened to you andreH. That just sucks. Unfortunately, an expensive lesson learned.  :)

Yeah I did use wiki for the link since I am on a new laptop I have no links saved. Sucks to hear about your loss man, I lost a few thousand this month on scams, just a bad streak this month I guess.

try to have a happy holidays, money is money and it'll find it's way back into your wallet eventually

To avoid this happening in the future, you and everyone else should memorize the address.

It's 6 characters + silkroad. Very easy, and you don't need to use any external websites when you're not on your normal PC with the bookmarked site.

Just make sure not to try depositing btc until your PIN is changed... use a different SR account if you're gunna order. ;)

Yeah I changed my PIN and Password as soon as I logged in, I'm going to be depositing a couple hundred tomorrow, I don't think my account is compromised anymore since the changes I made earlier but I will consider sending the money to a new account once I make one and buy for my next purchase this weekend.
