To protect yourself, I recommend taking the following steps immediately:
- Change Your Passwords: Update your Manacube account password and any other accounts that use the same or similar passwords.
- Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): If available, enable 2FA on your Manacube account and other accounts to add an extra layer of security.
- Monitor Your Accounts: Keep an eye on your email and other accounts for any suspicious activity or unauthorized access.
- Use Strong, Unique Passwords: Ensure that your passwords are strong and unique for each account. Consider using a password manager to help manage your passwords securely.
That's all from me stay safe.
