PSA: There are many reports that Teamviewer has been hacked.

I think we need an IP check to see if Yakov is posting from TeamViewer HQ.

Go ahead check.
Maybe i am the hacker

[yakov116]

Shhhh. He's not interested in the facts.

Just curious were you hacked? Do you know anyone personally that was?

No and no.

[yakov116]

No and no.

Me too and use it very often to help other and not one has reported to me that they have been hacked.

Your argument doesn't make sense, because you don't know anyone it happened to means it didn't happen? It could of happened to tens of thousands of people and it wouldn't even be a fraction of TeamViewer accounts.

No I am saying that if there was a hack I would have know of one person that was hacked

Millions and millions of users and this hack would have been done manually so a very small percentage. You ain't that popular, chances are you wouldn't know someone.

Correct but the likelihood that all this has to do with other hacks that took place is very very strong

you seem to be unreasonably sure about this not being a teamviewer hack.  I dont even use teamviewer but from what I have seen and heard it is definitely a possibility that they were hacked to some extent.  You being so positive that it wasnt strikes me as denial.  I am not saying that they were hacked, just that no one can be so sure of either side at this point.

There is absolutely no evidence of that, and plenty of evidence to the contrary. I don't understand why you're being so obstinate.

Of course, the fact that someone had a TeamView account and got hacked says nothing about whether the TeamViewer account had anything to do with the intrusion…

…but the results are interesting nevertheless.

At the time of writing [2016-06-03T23:00Z], just under 80 people had responded.

Of those, 53 said they’d been hacked somehow.

But just one of them had two-factor authentication enabled on TeamViewer, and 37 admitted they’d used their TeamViewer password on other accounts.

As far as we can see, that evidence doesn’t point any fingers at TeamViewer.
