Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2003 It pisses me off a ton, as now I've got to change everything, and I never saved my contact list for msn, and now it's all gone. It happened to a few other people I know, how about anyone here? Also, that was the email I put for this site in my profile or whatever. Anyone know how I can change all that? Thanks for any help, and if this is in the wrong forum(it does seem general), please change it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted January 5, 2003 If you need to have the e-mail you put in for the board changed, just let a mod know and we'll get to it. Or rather yet, just PM me and I'll take care of it since I'm gonn abe on for a while tonight. Just go to your control panel and edit your profile and I'll go ahead and approve it. Also, it sucks that you got hacked, man. Hope they didn't do any serious damage to your stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2003 Don't get that... ANyways, APO, it was nothing more than a pain in the ass. Of course, there's a matter of privacy, because now he can read all the mail I've had. It happened to few other people in my school, and the guy does indeed go to my school. I never understood the fun in hacking, and after talking to this guy for a bit, I now know who does. I mean, the guy was a pretty big loser. He IMed other people on my msn list, mostly girls, asking them for sex or other such nonsense. One girl started talking to him, just messing with him, and now he's obsessed with her, probably due to desperation and lack of contact with women in the first place. He probably has a sheltered life. If you don't believe me, just look at this: Me - " I don't care who you are. Seriously, you're probably a nobody anyway. I just want to be able to save my contacts on a list so I don't have to waste five minutes adding them manually." Him - "no, im not the only one usin g this email, a few of my budies have it too. lol, ur in trouble, were gonna hav som fun;)" I than called him a loser or something, causing him to go offline and probably cry. I had to re-read that a bit just to actually understand how pathetic this guy was. It's that simple. I still can't believe someone tried to intimidate me by hacking my MSN account. He probably thought he was badass. Oh well. Anyways, I just changed it all up and took care of most everything. So I have my contacts and made sure most people on my list knew to ignore him. So yeah, APO, I'm going to PM you and ask about changing my email for this site. It's not so bad, at least he provided an unintentional laugh... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 5, 2003 I'm guessing it's a Hotmail account so if you want to do some damage control and make sure he doesn't do anything more with your account, there's an address @Hotmail.com you can e-mail and have them dis-activate that account that got hacked.

Guest Mole Report post Posted January 5, 2003 It is very easy to 'hack' into an hotmail account. If you know the person, you can just answer the forgot the password questions, and you'll get in easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2003 Thanks for changing it APO (At least I think it was APO). I don't really care enough to deactivate the other one, but I would if I knew the proper address to send it to. Oh well I suppose it doesn't matter now. Thanks for the help to all those who delivered... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
