Hotmail accounts posted online

Polarman · Oct 5, 2009

Thousands of Hotmail passwords have been hacked and posted online, according to reports.

See this arcticle for more details:

I suggest that you change your password if you use any "Live" accounts.

rpsgc · Oct 5, 2009

Well, isn't it more likely that those passwords are from phishing attacks? Or just completely fake accounts?

kenkickr · Oct 5, 2009

I couldn't log into my accounts til I changed the passwords earlier.

Cuzza · Oct 5, 2009

you only need to change your password if you were dumb enough to get phished

kenkickr · Oct 5, 2009

I only respond to TPU msgs in my hotmail account so that wasn't the case. I honestly had to change the password before I could log into my account.

NEVERMIND: For some odd reason the field to change password every 72 days was checked.

I can stll log in So I hope I didn't get hacked :laugh:

Steevo · Oct 5, 2009

I didn't, but I don't trust anything, even myself. Just close your eyes and shout numbers and letters while you type your passoword, then submit yourself to mind altering drugs to earse the memories, or use roofies.

The whole MS live thing is an epic fail, IMO

However, I do use Hotmail

A Cheese Danish · Oct 5, 2009

Just logged into mine fine. Course I don't really use it for anything anyway, so I'm fine.

rpsgc · Oct 6, 2009

Well, there you have it: it WAS a phishing attack.

As if someone would just hack Microsoft's servers, pah!

A new list contains email accounts for Gmail, Comcast, Earthlink and other third party popular web mail services

Eat that MS bashers!

Mussels · Oct 6, 2009

well, thats unfortunate.

good thing i dont fall for phishies

Gzero · Oct 6, 2009

Just sit at pastebin and watch the new entries from Anon lol. Not everyone falls for it though and use a fake email+password.

Thankfully the web author of pastebin is going to start filter this crap so we can get back to using pastebin for what it was intended.
