The website Freedating has had a Ukraine based hacking attack between the 4th -8th of June. ID's , addresses and passwords have been stolen. Dan Winchester the owner has published warnings to change all passwords as some members use same one for their emails too. Here is an example from Dan's website. Standard stuff.
Quote:
Hello!My name is Marina I really want to find second half. i see your profile from www.freedating.co.uk . I am passionate about friendship, honesty and loyalty.
MORE CRAP but see below......
Quote:
Also I want to meet the man which will love and respect me... I really want to find happiness and in the future to have happy family...Write to me please on mine email:
[email protected]
The big request of you, write to me at once on mine email... I shall wait for your letter.. Marina


Here is the latest warning mail from Dan.

Quote:
This message contains important information about TWO potential email scams.

======
SCAM 1
======

A number of members have reported receiving an email which starts like this:

"Hello!My name is XYZ I really want to find second half. i see your profile from www.freedating.co.uk..."

This is a scam!

You should delete it.

GENUINE MEMBERS WILL NOT HAVE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, AND SO HAVE TO CONTACT YOU THROUGH THE SITE.

You can see the full email here:
http://www.freedating.co.uk/engine.php?action=security.scam

======
SCAM 2
======

It is possible that a hacker will try and send you a "phishing" email, which purports to be from FreeDating.co.uk, but actually takes you to a fake site to try and steal your login information.

Always check that you are actually on http://www.freedating.co.uk/ before logging in.

The easiest way to do this is to type www.freedating.co.uk into your browser, rather than clicking links in emails.

Best Regards
FreeDating.co.uk


Once Dan has managed to get back working, I will be asking for the reports from the members of freedating and getting to send the main details to me. Stand by for some fun! Incidently the police have been informed of the attack.

This was not just using profiles in site.This was a data steal from unauthorised entry to admin areas. Hacking attack. Any useage of the information gained from this is part of the criminal offence. HOWEVER WE DEAL WITH THE SCUM OF THE EARTH HERE, so carry on doing doing damage/Well you didn't expect anything less from what smelly stuff you get on your shoe by accident did you?

The Vlads are primarily interested in getting databases of email addresses to pull the romance scams on, but since they're criminals, anything is possible.

They'll even sell collections of email addresses to each other, and some hackers specialize in selling email addresses...obtained....'somehow' from dating sites.

@ Freya - there are plenty of tips in the stickies. In the meantime get on board the "I need a mentor thread" and you'll be assigned a wise soul to guide you.

If it is vlads you are after you can PM me for a spare address and ride out the script while you find that mentor (on your gmail account of course!).

Happy hunting oh and bait safe!
