Hello sir,
How are you.i am a new to this site.i am very much interested in hacking websites.
my email id is (I took this out so I don't get him flamed) -frauds

---

These people make onetime accounts to ask people how to hack. Is anybody else annoyed by this? Plz people don't msg around asking how to hack. It isn't cool and it won't work. BTW frauds is pretty funny, I have never been calle "sir" online. :) But seriously, plz don't spam people, it won't work. Instead it'll get you banned when you finally make a post. So please just learn from this site, learn all about security. Then get paid tons of money to protect others. Thats the way to go.

I actually have never received PMs such as those. I have received a few PMs, but all of them were related to posts I made or IRC conversations that I have had. Could you be doing/saying something which leads them to believe you'll help them out? I don't mean to offend you in any way, but I just don't see why you get PMs such as those, while I don't.

I thought a lot of people got them. Maybe if we wait a while, maybe some hours, somebody else will say it happened to them as well. I don't see why they could think I would help them out. I don't focus much on hacking.

well, either they figured because of your origin or because of something you posted that you would help them out in their lame quests of CRACKING...

I think i rember getting some PMs on the lines of thoes, but my memory is not as good as my sex so i wouldnt rember

I don't get as many as I was afraid I might get. One one hand, moderator status implies visibility, on the other hand, it implies swift vengeance for wasted time. I've only failed to respond (with replies, not vengeance) to a handful, though. Often honesty is the best policy: "I don't know. I don't have time to help you. I am not familiar with your problem. There are many useful sites, click here..."

Anyone who is very public with the way they are on the net, in this fashion I mean. Is going to get PM's such as these. Not to uncommon, unless your very secretive. Oh well, I just send a reply saying "Sorry, can't help you." Or if I am in a bad mood, I just delete. Why waste your time, you know?

Anyways, thats my two cents. Take it or leave it, I dont care.

Nope. I've never received any PM's like this either. I guess I must be lucky enough to maintain a low profile. You know khakisrule, your old signature implied that you enjoyed and were experienced at launching smurf attacks on other people's systems. Maybe the newbies knew what a smurf attack was (I know, it's hard to believe), and figured you were a fellow cracker.

I think you Guys are too nice

I think these people should be delt with extreme force, i.e. flame then ban THEM. It seems obvious to me that these people are sad freaks

These people need to get a life

JP should make a new rule to join. NO LAMERS, i.e wana hack Hotmail or want 2b ur friend

Sorry for been harsh but these people really piss me off :-<

Somehow I haven't gotten many PM's like that either. I have gotten a few requests in IRC, but not many on here. And I figure I am pretty "public" and high profile on this site... Even if I don't have moderator status so I can't deliver swift vengance.

A lot of it depends on your posts I think. I have made it pretty obvious a few different times that i am not a hacker/cracker/black hat/etc etc. That may have something to do with it.

yeah,
i agree with you khakisrule i get those **** like >>
<<HI I just want to know about how to hack hotmail account. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT IF, so please tell me.>>
And when you refuse telling them, tsomtimes they end up saying >>" just say you don't know how" you looser, y wasting my time LOL>>
usually i say to my self, who is then the looser? i wish am able to kick ya Bot out inhere.

Bingo.

I think if the public didn't fantacize about what a "hacker" or "cracker" is then people would be less apt to ask lame questions (ie, "Can you show me how to hack hotmail......."). There should be more on the news about the young kid from the suburbs who's about to spend the next few years getting to know Tyrone really well in a cramped jail cell...perhaps that would be a deterrent to youngsters wanting to learn how to be "hackers"...just my 2 cents...

the eeshman

I can honestly say.... I never got one...

Can someone tell me how to hack myself into the playboy mansion? No, not PlayBoy.com. I want to be physically present at the playboy mansion..... (thought I would try to be funny)

Nope, never, althoug I have goten TON's of msg's like that over mail.......Euch, I hate Spam...!

When I was hanging around the Yahoo! Hacker Lounge a year/year 1/2 ago, there were people asking those questions all the time via private message or out in the chat room with really bold letters and/or flooding. It got really, really annoying and nobody was really talking about anything other than "I am l33t3r than j00" garbage.

When I would get PM's like those you describe, I simply ignored them. My ignore list got so big I decided just to stop going there altogether. As for IRC, I avoided the cracker rooms altogether...

I just hang here where the cool people are ;)

mmm. spam. what else has that beautiful gel that keeps it um fresh?
ok ok. not that kind of spam. anyway you look at it, spam just sucks.

apparently some of you misinterpreted my previous post, if you did, what i am trying to say is that whoever contacted khakis, either figured that since you have such clout here that you must know something on the topic, or they figured that because you were from canada you would help them, although im not sure why that would make you more likely to know of such topics, and no im not kissing ass, im simply explaining myself. and the reason cracking was capitalized is because that is just what they were trying to do, hacking is merely the enjoyment in stretching a programs capabilities or exploring the details of a programmable system, it also can be somebody who is simply an expert at a particular program. cracking is of the illegal variety, and that is what they were wanting help with, attempting to gain access through unconventional methods(conventional being the user logging in) or attempting to gain entry to 'learn' from what was in their friends email accounts.

I think I've gotten one message like that, a long while ago... personally I didn't validate it with any sort of reply - pretty much the same treatment I give to spam that gets through my filters (although I tend to take that spam and use it to strengthen my filters).

But khakis' - forgive me for asking... I seem to remember a post from you a long time ago, arguing that "n00bs should be coddled and "given a chance" rather than flamed in to cinders for asking such stupid questions" (paraphrasing heavily, but I hope it strikes a memory); if I'm mis-remembering, my apologies... you joined right around the time of a few other "noteables," such as komo (or wtf ever his handle(s) were). My basic point is that posting "oh, let's give the kiddies a chance" has the effect of causing a certain percentage of the kiddies within our 90k plus ranks to think it might be worthwhile to PM you asking for "help..." at least that's what I would guess, anyway.

khakisrule sounds like yah00 chat .As that is all they ask in there.It's annoying an just plain dumb for any one to ask those question's.But usually they are teen's or a ticked off chick in a chat that wants a rival gone,or a suspicious spouse thats playing online as much as the other one is.When they ask those questions you know they are lame.
