    LulzSec also hacked the NHS months ago and got Admin passwords. They didn't release those but instead contacted the NHS and gave them all the information they had, including the exploit they used.

    They're not nice guys but they know just enough to realise that by doing the occasional act of 'good' they can keep a lot of people onside.

    They hacked sonypictures competitions database, sony russia etc.

    Thankfully I've been following their releases for a while now and not a single email address or password of mine has shown up.

    I just love some of the passwords that people use though, it's great :D

    Guys, I'm not so sure if I should click on the link with the Lulzsec link with emails and passwords on them. I mean if some police service decide to contact on ISP and find out who viewed the webpage with the sensitive information on it you could get into trouble.

    Also, I wouldn't trust the OP when he's asking for your email address. If he says they removed the email addresses, they how would he know if you were targeted?


  • Registered Users Posts: 412 ✭✭Haelium


    SO many people have passwords like 12345 and "Bigdick" or "bigtits", one guys password was "mommy", that's a bit messed up...

    Anyway, I for one welcome these "hackers" and would like to hear more.

    You obviously haven't read the entire thread. I already asked the question. Once in public domain anyone can look at it, but it is illegal to use the information contained on/in the site/file for accessing accounts which do not belong to you...

    Getting in trouble for viewing a text file? If that's the case then looking at this particular list is the least of our worries.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 757 ✭✭✭colly_06


    Someone said the addresses may be from the writerspace.com database, so if anyone here uses that then beware.

    That's a relief, I'm not on the list!

    Although I haven't signed up to any porn sites anyway (¬.¬) so I shouldn't be worried.

    Now, I wouldn't do that. I trust Mr. S but how do you know he's now not typing your email and password into Facebook and changing your status to "I love big man-c0ck" or similar*

    There are thousands of journalists trawling those lists looking for politicians or celebrities who have signed up to porn sites or just looking for their email addresses so that they can get their passwords and try them on email accounts, facebook etc. The police are not going to target anyone looking at those files. They may target anyone who logs into another persons email or facebook, online banking using the information they got from the list though. Then again, they may not. Depends on who makes a complaint I suppose :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 907 ✭✭✭bandit197


    I just searched the list for the password '123456'. It returned 1025 matches.
    No wonder people are getting hacked.

    From what I can see, the list has been removed from Mediafire. If you need your email to be checked, please send me a PM with your email address. I will check them asap.

    There are also others in the chat who have also been kind enough to offer to check for you

    Personally I think its the fault of the company holding the details. They should have better measures in place.

    Look at the passwords people think are secure, 1024 (about 2%) think 123456 is a secure password FFS. I hope this teaches people

    Someone on that list has his mobile phone number (an Irish mobile) as his password. And from his username I can tell he is in his thirties.

    Someone give him a ring and pretend to be a reporter:pac:

    How exactly does the best password in the world work and stay secure when someone steals it, your email address and puts in on the internet for all to see?

    I'd be interested in hearing your security explanation!

    I have been following these guys' tweets for the past 48 hours now. I noticed this morning that they gave a link to download these emails. I downloaded it and as a result I have the .txt file here in front of me. I am trying to do a good thing for those who no longer are able to download the file (Mediafire removed it from their website.) I have already check 10 emails that have been sent to me through pms. If you don't want me to check then you don't have to. There are 3/4 other guys here who are also offering, so go and ask them!

    I have the file but I am not prepared to share.. This kind of stuff is very delicate. Someone just posted a picture of him using an amazon account that isn't his, which he got from an email account.

    You don't have to trust me if you don't want to... I don't care at the end of the day ... I'm just trying to help. I have already checked 10 emails for people already.

    No. There was a release of about 25,000 emails from a porn site last week. This, I think, is from some sort of writers site from what someone here said.

    I am sure even a proper "safe" password would have been intercepted. I assume they just hacked a websites database (who didnt encrypt properly) or else used keyloggers etc on made up login forms.

    None the less, people are idiots. 123456 comming up so many times, along with password is shocking. I honestly didnt know there was people who used actual dictionary words as passwords, let alone "password".

    Agreed... there are some pretty hefty passwords in there like "dk54832" for example. That's not too bad of a password if you ask me. Maybe a upper-case in there as well but yes I agree, this had nothing to do with how strong your password was. The website is at fault.

    The big issue here is that people are fools and lots use the same password for other sites including their emails, paypals, amazon etc

    The big issue is that people put their trust in sites that are allegedly secure and aren't.

    I have been on the net since 95 and only in the last two years have I implemented a very secure (Until someone bothers their ass cracking it) password system. Mainly because my old passwords would never have been found in any brute force dictionary.... but the fact that one could be stolen form a site and found in one or two others has worried me...

    Your derision at others is misplaced

    Here's an easy way to have a random password for every site and remember it. You need a strong secure one, something random like "GnI1eZfS" which you memorise (or write down till you have it memorised). Then for every site you visit you add the first two consonants, then first two vowels, so your password for Amazon becomes "GnI1eZfSmzaa", for Boards becomes "GnI1eZfSbroa", Google becomes "GnI1eZfSggoo" and so on.
