WARNING! Survey hack going to MSN users. Beware!

The Disturbed · Mar 30, 2009

I'm pretty sure this is Sigex doing this. This morning I was asked to complete a survey on my MSN and I would get a pin. Seconds after I completed the survey, I was logged out, and my password and my recoveries were changed. Luckily, I use different passwords for everything. I don't think he was able to get into my Sythe account, but I changed the password just in case. I'm just warning you all out there.

Yes its Sigex. You aren't the first person he's tried to hack.

How are you guys so sure that Sigex is doing this?

cp · Mar 30, 2009

Because it's easy to blame him.

Password and recoveries changed for what? MSN?

This is what you do. When you get the questions, say shit to him. He will get his hopes up and tries it. "zomFg im gonana get a neww msnz accz". After say fuck you Sigex, block him, prtScn and post on sythe.

Many people fall for this trick. =/

Actually, I keep in contact with all sorts of people, including people who make their living scamming (even though I myself have never scammed) and this seems like quite the popular thing to do, ever since some kid got R2's MSN using this. Theres some word my friend told me it's called, a type of scamming, it means to manipulate and get into someones head, they forget stupid simple things and fall for quite common scams. Anyways this message is getting pretty long so I better stop talking ^_^.

Social Engineering, bud.

Nevermind, im just interested in how he is doing it. Must take some SE skill.

Its not only msn he can get into. He can also probably get your Runescape account details. Then get your ip address from the same method he used to get cfrey's msn.

be careful

It's not some sort of l33t hack. Sigex is nothing more than a scammer. Tricking you into giving him your account details is just a form of scamming. If he was hacking you, he would have some sort of password generator, or some brute force method perhaps of accessing your MSN account. Either way, he wouldn't need you to complete some sort of survey.

And, if he is able to get a hold of any other of your accounts, it's not because he is super smart, it's because you were dumb enough to use the same password and same recovery details for everything.

I guess it's better some of you learn now, then later down the road when some company offers you two free Sony PS3s, or a Nigerian prince offers billions of dollars across shore.

Lol... I suspected it was something like this. How could people fall for that?
