How can they hack my messenger without my email password?
And why should I be answering this obviously misplaced message?
I've seen it done. (not physically but to a large group of pso's who were not careful.) What they did was chat on yim to the hacker dude. He ran some sort of program to figure out the passwords. Once he had the pso's password, he tried the same yahoo user name as an email, and the same password. Unsurprisingly, many of those matched! He used his access to the email to get the passwords to their pso accounts and was able to transfer the money out of those accounts to new ones he set up, and used to call other pso's.
Fucking bastard hackers.
Oh, and don't use the same name and password for your email and your yim. It's not smart.
