Sorry, no advice or tips.
Just wondering if anyone else had this problem.Gives you a ‘odd tingling feeling’ if moneybookers was actually hacked.
But more likely it was you.
Moneybookers is a very, very bad place to keep money.
I also lost my old gmail account to this. My bad I had the same password for my gmail and my moneybookers.. I got a moneybookers payment email about some video game I didnt buy..
So I was typing an email to moneybookers to let them know it was a fraud payment, and when I hit send I was logged out of gmail, password changed, mobile recovery and mobile email changed, and I had to have filled out the form to recover my google account like 50 times over the next couple of months but kept getting rejected I think because of the dates.. it was a 6 year old account and I didnt remember the proper dates that I had setup each of the google services under my account..
It was devastating.. had to recover and change the passwords for all of my servers and hosting accounts and every website I ever used..
Since then I have been offered to buy the moneybookers database more than once, and by different people.
Its crazy, moneybookers is difficult to use because they force you through such rigorous security yet they pay no mind to the security of their own servers and systems.
