???????????????????????????????/
hi ruka!
i would like to share my own experience of hacking. in march 8, 2010 i got an email from a certain yahoo database center requesting me to provide them the password and username of my email address as they are trying to decongest yahoo website from inactive users. the message said my account would be deleted from the database if i am not going to provide them the details as that would mean my account is dormant.
since i was waiting for my AOR because i am expecting it to come within the same week, i gave my details. i thought it was a legitimate message from yahoo since the sender is yahoodatabasecenter32@yahoo.com.
a day after that, my friends all over the globe sent text messages to me verifying whether it's true that I got stranded in London and asking for money to pay my hotel bills as my wallet and credit cards were stolen! apparently, the hacker used my e-mail account to send that message to all my contacts. and he changed my password such that i was unable to open my account for 2 days. luckily, i was able to retrieve it by recalling the answers to my secret personal questions. i changed my password since then.
may this serve a lesson to everyone who is very excited on their AOR's! don't give your password and username to anybody you do not know!
