Hackergate part four - PLEASE READ!

I can't see the profile of dadsec anymore on tweeter it looks like his account got suspended again. I could see it about 30 min ago.

Just marking place, with a nice new name.

*swatting

can that tweet about new sawtting be reported to the police?

diddl

I didn't have to dereg. just contacted MNHQ and asked what can be done (actually as I said nothing to do with hacking, initially, but couldn't reset password so had to be sorted)

SWAY pic/tweet is showing an time stamp of 1hr, which is when I first saw it so I dont think its reposted.

Well now we know, if he does do it again, what it involves. I am sure the police will be waiting for him to call this time.

Mumsnet seems so innocuous. Seems so bizarre for someone to use all their energy destroying it. And the swatting thing is ridiculous. I've blocked him, won't be trying to get sense out of him again. I see another Twitter user has been insulting him, brave person!

I'm sure he has reposted the SWAT photo, the time stamp has changed.

I see a couple of people have tried to engage with 'him' (it could be a number of people).

I thought it was a bizarre interview too. At first I thought it was written by Jeffrey but it looks like a genuine link. I don't normally read the Mirror though so figured I just wasn't familiar with their style.

I can see it too

I'm looking on Twitter (registered but barely ever use it) - but I don't actually know who he is.

The thing is by getting the police on his trail as well, he's asking for it properly.

I think he has issues with his own father tbh. Probably misses being spanked or something. And blames his mother for not preventing it.

Thus all women are bitches and he likes the thrill of being in trouble.

I've absolutely no idea if it's relevant (probably not), but within the last 24 hours I've found I can no longer access one of my e-mail accounts. A BT one.

It is the one that MN used to be registered to before I changed it about 6 months ago.

This user name wasn't on "the list" though - not sure if any of my previous ones were as I can't remember them!

He's using a few Twitter accounts, it's probably deleted from one but still on the others.

Don't engage with him and you'll probably be fine.

That interview with the Mirror is bizarre.

I think that if you report a tweet Twitter maybe hides it from you as you obviously found it offensive?

I can still see the new swat tweet too.

With regards to email accounts and security

This rather horrible link takes you to a page that lists most of the services you can setup 2-step verification for, its well worth doing, and means people can't get into your account without your phone.

Mmmm I mentioned way back on first thread, been having troubles with my email all of a sudden, never happened before. First night of hacking and I had "Unable to connect to myexampleemail@address". Didn't come back til late next morning to the extent I didn't get The Email saying to reset pw or both the pw resets I'd asked for til then.

Last night, same thing. Didn't bother with resetting pw when I was logged out - waited til I was able to connect to email.

I've been unable to connect this afternoon either. It's just come back.

I'm not on gmail, I changed my MN pw twice now. Not on "the list". I hadn't used my MN pw for anything else. This has not happened before. Maybe just a coincidence, but if anyone's building evidence up, it may possibly perhaps be related

They got this information over a month ago.

Weffles- I just looked and I can still see it. The picture of the police.

I agree with you, I think the hack was financial in motive, hiding behind the 'anti-dad' sentiment but not so sure why there are women on twitter so anti us too. I find it very supportive on here, with very few vipers. I think the posts talking about small penis sizes of hackers pretty childish though.

I reported the swat tweet and it's been deleted. I was silly enough to engage with him and am now terrified he'll target me.

I don't understand this 'anti-father' thing, loads of us are married to and love very dearly 'fathers'. No idea why there is so much anti mumsnet feeling, I find it very happy, supportive and fun on here.

They don't like women being told they are with abusive men, and women being told to not allowed abusive partners access to their children when this endangers them.

Having said that, I am pretty certain that "dad_sec" is about 13 and doesn't give a shit about all that. He's been on here and read the threads speculating about if this is the reason, and decided that pretending he is nobly doing this for downtrodden men gives his fairly pointless, random hack some gravitas , and helps to garner some publicity.

If you're having issues with your gmail account, do use the gmail help centre, particularly the Security & Privacy page: support.google.com/mail/topic/3394218?hl=en&ref_topic=3394212&vid=1-635756814125352775-5104994436281438098

If the information on the page doesn't help you can also report problems through it.
