AIM hacked.

[cowpig]

AIM servers are full of easily exploitable holes and stuff. I know because in middle school one of my friends was really into the online "hax0r" scene.

He would hack "valuable" screen names for fun all the time. His screen name was "kurt cobain" for a while...

[Prevaricator]

how did he hack your aim?

[samh133]

I have no clue.

[invid]

[censored] the aim..contact ftp stat first..

[LucidDream]

it seems insane that all these players are getting hacked and no one has a clue how it's happening. i'm not the greatest w/ computers so i would be in the same boat. just seems like someone should have figured it out by now.

anyway gl sam w/ getting everything back. it's really ridiculous that this happens so much and none of us really know how to protect ourselves.

I didn't click on anything. He sent me a message from sportsbettor07 sayin to send him money. I blocked him then he threatened to hack me from another name and all of a sudden I got kicked off. He's talked to me before but I really don't remember clicking on anything from him. I'm trying to reset the password but aim is asking me security questions that I don't know the answers to like billing information and I've never paid anything for it. He must have changed all that [censored] too.

If I click links to other urls using firefox am i protected from getting any keylogger? what about in internet exporer? is there a difference?

[samh133]

I'm pretty sure the first name he talked to me on was sportsbettor07 but I'm not 100% and I deleted that conversation. But the other two names he talked to me on were gameofskillz and alwaysriveed.

I guess I might as well out my aim name since I'm probably not going to get it back. Samh119 is not me.

[Stinger88]

it's def sportsgambling07....same guy who hacked my aim

other aliases:
bstings624 (my old one)
adz124poker
gameofskillz
lilladiexoxo89
toadguy999
youwagersupport

And bottom line is just be careful when you're swapping money. Ask a question only the person would know, like a hand you discussed or played against each other.
