[:( ] (thats colon followed by a opening round bracket Widout a space between the two) gives a sad faced smiley (there's something I never thought I'd say!) There are probably many more but these are the ones I generally use Just remember to type without the square brackets and not to leave any space between the 2 characters (as you've done in the above comment. Someone hacked past my initial firewall :( He managed to get his hands on Nothing :) I read a lot of darknet so I knew how to encrypt my data with multiple firewalls and use stronger encryption!! ;) yeesh….this might just never get read by U grav but let me tell you

It still baffles me as to why we learn, in school, about history and wars so that they are not repeated, but we do not learn about basic computer security, so we still fall to it...

We all should learn about phishing so that we are not susceptible to it. It still baffles me as to why we learn, in school, about history and wars so that they are not repeated, but we do not learn about basic computer security, so we still fall to it…

I fondly remember someone who had bet me Rs.500 (roughly $11) to hack my id and he fell for this....not only was i richer by $11, he lost his password and id!!hehe its absolutely right when they say " Curiosity killed the cat" when will people learn I wonder!!

how utterly stupid are those who blindly give away their passwords to such emails

My favourite form of phishing has to be the one shown below:

Hack any email id in 6 steps

1.Go to compose mail in your id

2.type the email id of the person whose id you want to hack

3.type in YOUR email id AND YOUR password
(this is to authenticate your id with the mail server)

4.Below this type the following without the quotes
“!#^#HDH*#@*$mailserver..ping.id>25381djskadm:hacka-hacka”

5.Then send the mail to hackid@ (some mailserver).com

6.The password of the person will be processed and sent to you within 2 weeks

Its amazingly mindnumbing how many people I know have fallen for this and given away their passwords and ids to phishers

but after all they did deserve it….they’d set out to hack someone’s ID hadn’t they?? I fondly remember someone who had bet me Rs.500 (roughly $11) to hack my id and he fell for this….not only was i richer by $11, he lost his password and id!!hehe

its absolutely right when they say ” Curiosity killed the cat”

Phishers and spammers don't let go any type of web application which accepts user input and displays it to public... Emails, forums,blogs and now google calender.. But luckily google has been very fast in fixing such stuff. They will find a way to handle this as well.. Well that was supposed to happen.

From Facebook, to Warcraft to Digg.com there's always somebody dumb enough. Phishers just like Botnet Controllers and Virus distributors will use any vector to push their product.
