Default Facebook hacker Warning

It has come to my attention that hackers are using Facebook to network with high limit players after hacking them.

Specifically, Anton Bergstrom, an EPT finalist has been hacked and the hacker is purporting to be him on Facebook. He then messages the people via IM that he gets from face book as Anton Bergstrom

Anton Bergstrom has had all of his accounts hacked and drained, and the hacker has taken over his MSN.

Thanks for the great posts guys. I'm sure when you get hacked you will feel great.

The interesting thing here is the facebook angle. William Thorson was recently hacked by this same hacker.

The moral is to verify by telephone any cash transactions, as IM is not secure and your friend may have been hacked. Don't be too trusting. This has been going on quite a bit recently.

Anyone who responds sarcastically to this post deserves to have their account hacked and drained.

Asking a question they would only know works, but probably safer to call always.

A side note: Stu Paterson, a fulltilt pro, got hacked by a hacker asking him a bunch of question in chat which led the hacker to his secret questions answer.

Scams always are run the same way, however the method of delivery often changes engouh to blind side even vigilent people who are so focused on scams coming form somewhere else.
