QUOTE(Daryl Fawcett @ Sep 4 2006, 09:18 AM) [snapback]149604[/snapback] Calvin, I heard you deleted a member here who you originally thought may have been responsible. If true, I assume that has been rectified? Nope, have not rectified anything. I deleted the last member to join with the handle of JasonWitch_. Google, jasonWitch_ and you will find that he has registered on hundreds if not thousands of boards. Bulletin boards just like email have become the target of spammers. About 3 months ago we started getting a rash of new members signing up many with strange names that you would not expect on a board of our kind. There is a market for bulletin board list and BSDA is on it. These list can be brought by spammers with automatic script to sign them up on thousand of boards at one time. We have email validation turned on as a deterrent. Most will not bother to validate, too much work. But JasonWitch did. I don’t know if he was the hacker. If I suspect someone is a security thread or here to sell us boner pills I will take them out. Apologize later if I have too. |

Why not talk about the fact that we could be targeted strictly because...well....because?  It's true.... .....okay..... I'm

QUOTE(LadyTenor @ Sep 4 2006, 09:11 AM) [snapback]149569[/snapback] That is not as feasible as it sounds....the hacker may not even be in the U.S..............financially, it might not be worth it to sue the hacker....as for criminal prosecution, many jurisidictions now have computer crime divisions, but they are much more interested with chasing those who use the WWW to defraud folks and commit crimes of a sexual nature.... And also most of these hackers (well I have no stats) are minors. This post has been edited by MissLynn: Sep 5 2006, 08:36 PM -------------------- Lynn

I warned a friend of mine who owns a board. Not sure if the warning will help her better prepare but, at least she knows that forums are vulnerable right now and can be on the lookout.

I think that the last user name that signed up in the past 30 minutes or so may also need to be reflected on....

I discovered the hack today, however, since I am away from home, I probably won't be able to correct the problem until late tomorrow.

I just arrived at home and am now trying to figure out what I need to do to get rid of this hack, which means that I am now working on it. This is over at MSDAOL.

This is over at MSDAOL. Dorveishique just registered today at BSDA and is listed on this page that has the words "Turkish Hacker" on it. Just thought I'd mention it.
