Default Beat: Annette_15 has UB account hacked...

Not sure if this is the right place but the news came from p5's - looks like someone emptied 20k++ from her account and was offering $1.2k on UB for $1k via western union.

Summary in blog - link in profile.

Cheers, Mark

and the dude who hacked it apparently won 12k on her account, then they found out and locked it, so when its safe, and its reopened, she gets the 12k.

Seriously, how does someone get his/hers account hacked into?
For instance, how did this happen?

There are any numbers of ways it could have happened. I think the point is that the simple login/password method is not exactly safe. Some new security features need to be introduced.

I often think this happens because people are sloppy and choose simple passwords.
But maybe that's not the case?
Is it possible for someone to hijack your Pc and get access to your poker software from another computer?
