Yep seen that one mate,  there seems to be a rash of it lately.  But why?  All that effort for what gain?   Just to say they could?  :thumbdown:

Mayby I can see some selfish benefit in hacking to steal people money or hacking to spy on someone's webcam (perve), or private info maybe but what do they get out of stealing credits? Credit's that only have value to those who earned them honestly?

Crunch on my friends & don't let a few wankers get in the way of a good thing.
