Someone has hacked the yahoo messages board for Sirius stock. Others also. Thousands of hate and anti-USA messages on the board 24 hours a day. It's going on for several days now.
Its' all done with a computer. The guy must have thousands of accounts.
Anyway anyone can stop it? Their are also messages threating to kill the President on the boards. You can see the messages
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/mb?s=SIRI
I think that link will work.
oh no what are we gonna do ? Call the secret serivce man, this is a serious national thread......

Why dont you contact yahoo then since they host it?
You know this is America. Actually more then that this is the internet. THey do have the right to say or post whatever they want. Nice or not i think you need to seek help from Yahoo as well.
if their posting anti-american and kill the president stuff their already being tracked down...dont worry about it
Actually, it is illegal to threaten the president. Federal Crime. Secret Service can take you in without any evidence for the most part, just someone saying you wanted to kill the president. You get thrown in jail till he is at least out of the area.Quote:

Oh really? Show me something that would point out that anything has been "broken into" :mad:Quote:

He has "thousands of accounts" remember? So how would you know...Quote:

All I got to say about that ^ is Haha!Quote:

This is sad that Yahoo allows this for days. I never seen a worse attack on Yahoo since I had the internet. 24 hour a day non stop attack on the bb boards.
Who would order from them if they can't stop a bb attack? They got real security problems there.
And Im pissed off because this is like the hottest stock in years. It really sucks that the entire board is now useless.
Prove it.Quote:

Tell me something. When you register on yahoo for an account, you have to entre in a code at bottom of the screen. Those scrambled letters that are slanted.
Tell me how someone is able to defeat that by registering hundreds of accounts with a computer?
The post are all computer generated. They are done 24 hours a day like 10 a min or so. Don't tell me someone is pressing posting buttons from morning to night non stop. If you respond to a post, they never write back.
I even had some guys names on ignore and their post still showed up! Total defeat of security.
11223344.................why do you keep repeating yourself :D
Errrrrrrrr? I think that there are a number of them involved. This looks very much like a student prank to me, possibly alcohol and narcotics inspired? I KNOW there are a lot of them ...........can't you analyse style???????????????Quote:

I agree that it is childish................but not really threatening (other than your sanity, if you read too much of it)
Maybe Sirius stock is going down the tubes.................sell, sell, sell?...........buy, buy, buy?........are you a bull, or a bear?............do you ship it in shag?
I never did rate Yahoo................wonder why?
Well that's my £0.010638297 :D
Ok well can you or anyone on here stop the attacks on that board for me?
You got a free stock tip in return! Huge stock will make lots of money on it if you buy it now and hold.
I know its only a stock board, but I would like it working again.
There is nothing really "broken" about it, and someone spamming the boards is NOT a security hole... It's not really an "attack" either, as the board works just fine. Also, Making that guy stop would put us in a position of doing something illegal, even if it was for the greater good.
I'm going to kill the president
waiting.....
still waiting........

those secret serviuce pusss.................woah!!!!!!! wtf!!! who are you

[quote]Ok well can you or anyone on here stop the attacks on that board for me?[\quote]
Sure. I'll stop them with one simple peice of advice. Quit being an idiot and read other forums more friendly to your way of thinking. Attacks halted as far as you're concerned.
I knew of this site since the 90's that's why I came here. I wouldn't know where else to post something like this. I tried anything.
The board was really important though. When else did you ever see people posting about a stock at 4am in the morning? This stock is huge news. I don't know if you follow stocks or what but this thing is like a Microsoft , or a future Yahoo. It will be huge!
A lot of important post where on there. People who been in stocks for 25 yrs or long giving good tips on what to do.
It's like my chance to get into something good and someone idiot has to blow it for me. Thats why I was pissed off.
Some guy on the board said the attacks would continue until the troops are out of Iraq. Don't know if he was just somebody posting anything, but I need the board back before then! ha
I got a lot of money invested in this stock.
My dear chap, I will not confuse you............my CPA is in the UK ...............PriceWaterhoseCoopers?
Not that long until they owe me a pension :)
If your stock is up, and you are worried..................just sell it and pay the tax!
Your issue is NOT IT security..............it is your fat, flabbygut, American greed?..............
Sell!..................do it NOW.....then you will have all those little dollars that you invested back?
Yes, I could probably do what you ask...................but would you pay me $250,000 upfront?...........I would need at least that to even start....................OK you cannot see what your favourite stock is doing................if you are a professional investor, you do not need to?............get a friggin life huh?
I am VERY serious..................and I DO KNOW WTF I AM TALKING ABOUT
Ok well moderator can delete this entire thread. This is my last post on it.
Professional investors don't know as much as a group of thousands of people. It's really just all opinions into one big group that make it more important. I rather get some tips from several different people than just one pro investor. I had a mutual fund where managers manage the stocks they buy. Did terrible over time. They would never say too buy something like this stock since they go buy textbook only. I use gut also.
You gotta be into stocks I think too really get what Im saying here. Oh well. You got a free tip anyway or anyone else who reads this!
And I am less than 130 pounds so don't believe all the American sterotypes you hear over there. Plenty of thin people here! Put on any American soap opera an you will find not one overweight person.
ok guys! thanks for letting me post this!

Where ?
As for stocks :
In the UK we have 'special' stocks for [L]users like yourself
http://www.villagenet.co.uk/reference/stocks.html
...I don't see anything out of the ordinary in that link...maybe i'm missing something?
Why is my "scammometer" reading full scale deflection?
Oh! yeah!................let's go to one of those "nerdy sites" and pump this useless stock?
Social engineering?
:cool:
I finally got home from my weekend away and decided to add to the fun -
Fox -=- Let's see. Special stocks for the [L]users in the US. Very easily identified. We call them 'junk bonds', 'mutual funds' and 'over the counter' stocks.
11223344 - Dude. It's Yahoo. Get literate, get a real online trading spot, or turn off the computer and get a real life.
Val - somewhere, deep within the bowels of a supercomputer, your nom de plume and ip address were recorded for further research into your usage of those specific words, the context in which they were used, and who you really are. I hope you're not planning a US vacation anytime soon...
hate to say it but devpon triggered the same box... so at least you've got company.
nihil - yah, Fox's just trying to shunt this guy into the slot to which he so obviously belongs...
Guy, Yahoo is the best site for bb postings on stocks. It draws thousands of people and it's posting on it.
How come everyone has a life that post on here but yet I don't for asking help? I don't post on here all day.
The internet was a lot more friendly in the 90's when I got it I noticed. Everyone use to just help everyone out with problems or questions. Now today it's like get lost or I don't wanna be bothered with your problems. Sign of the time I guess.
I was just trying to get the board working for a lot of others also that really wanted it. Im from the friendly generation of internet users! I help.
Ok bye.
Really? YOU got it noticed? I have to call BS on that... Acting like Al Gore are we?Quote:

And we are friendly, just not to stupid questions, and not to people asking us to do something illegal. Some of us simply don't like the FBI.
We tell you to get a life cuz you are so up in arms about some spammer on a freaking yahoo message board. If yahoo gave 2 cents, they would have a moderater who would delete all that BS.
And we are friendly, just not to stupid questions, and not to people asking us to do something illegal. Some of us simply don't like the FBI.
I never said doing something illegal. I thought their might be a way to stop the post somehow.
They got like like programs for anything online now it seems. Maybe an anti-spam program or something or knowing someone to write a letter to solve the problem faster. They now got pop-up blockers to stop the pop-up ads from appearing on screen which I didn't know about until last year.
I figure someone must have had this problem before on other bb's online. Just though their might be a way of fixing it faster.
That's all I asked guy nothing more.
Any good BB has mods that don't allow people liek that to get out of hand. Those programs that would be anti spam would be illegal, though I'm sure they exist. If you really want the board fixed, get yahoo involved. Find some other people who care about that board and make an online petition or send a letter or email to yahoo.Quote:

Needing balance in my AP's anyway, and deciding that for today, at least, stupidity should be painful, /me pulls out the mini-redomatic and cuts loose on an idiot. Below are several reasons why.
Invest in a mirror and you'll see a perfect likeness of who blew your thread for you.Quote:

/me counts 2 more posts from the idiot and wonders if he'll ever shut up.Quote:

You asked folks having nothing to do with the site forum you're posting to to halt someone's posting. This, in and unto itself, is asking for something illegal. Have you ever considered whining to Yahoo and keeping your drivel off of this site?Quote:

Whups. They sure didn't stop YOU... damn inferior technology.Quote:

Yes, they now HAVE them too. Your piss-poor grammatical skills clearly indicate your poor intellect and level of education. It is quite obvious to those who have wasted their time reading your pathetic whinings that you are too inept to invest anything, and are clearly wasting our time. You remind me of a certain poster from here a couple of months back who was asking about a tinfoil hat...Quote:

Obviously not, or they'd keep the kids from spamming their site with the very same meaningless political propaganda that you've been whining about here.Quote:

We have. You have just finished reading a clear example of how it's dealt with here. Now that you're a laughingstock in front of several MILLION viewers, precisely how do you feel?Quote:

I would strongly suggest not posting further on this or any other thread, 11223344, as you have removed all doubts regarding your skill with computers, and your intelligence in general. I know that was wishful thinking, however, and I eagerly await the laugh value I shall glean from your next response. :rolleyes:
For who thinks that this thread is just a waste of time and b.s. filled:Quote:

I'VE LEARNED SOMETHING HERE!
Quote:
nom de plume (nom di PLOOHM) French for “pen name”; an invented name under which an author writes. Mark Twain was the nom de plume of Samuel L. Clemens.
(im so happy... my keyboard is wet from my tears:spit: )
Yeah, Samuel L. Jackson always had an awsome way with words.

Now then, its not my place and from what you've said, you are not really doing anything either, your company is so 'big time' that it obviously hasn't done anything also. Now the question is what do you actually want? I mean, your just siting on your ass here acting like we should have already done something about every bit of your problems & worries... but you know what... it's been asked that this thread be closed for WAY to many times now.
So... now would be the best time ya' fOTHER mUCKERING MODs!
